What can i do?, I have and "old" ibanez (H-S-H) and i want to put there the Zak Wilde pak (EMG 81-85) , but do i need a middle single coil to put in, or with the "old" one will be O.K? Which EMG will fit better EMG-SA or wich one is the best in your opinion?(???)(no idea)

And about the circuits, are they the same of putting-in only the EMG zak wilde pack.

Maybe the best option is going to a luthier?


Thank you.

im pretty sure you wouldnt need to replace it


if anyone tells you that you cant mix active with passive tell them to fuck off

you'll have to do some modifying, but it's possible to do.

i think bls has a guitar with active and passives, maybe... i dunno. ask him.

i say buy a squire strat and add some SA's it would be be killer

what the fuck is up with you and your squire strats, you aint funny man, just crawl into a corner and die

if you have a HSH, you wont be able to use the two H at the same time. i recommend you replace the single as well. unless you dont care.

i say...take the S out (leave it out) put the emg's in and get a new 3 way switch for em too

^^ good idea. you would have to change the wiring, but it shouldnt be a big problem

hmmmm, im thinking of doin the same with the same problem

You can mix active and passive, you just need an impendence switch.

if i do anything ill replace it with 81-85 and put somthing cool in the space where the single coil was.id get passives but the guitar is just not that nice.but the active pickups will kinda isolate the sound.

The active pickups will kinda isolate the sound????
I was thinking an EMG-S active single coilfor the middlle, but kbow, i don´t know.
Now i started to change the pickups shall i change the bridge to an original Floyd rose bridge???

. I don´t know, i like the guitar, but it isn´t a very good guitar, so i don´t know waht to do. I´m waiting for Dariusz e-mail, from the RAN, but i don´t know what to do with this guitar (the ibanez). I don´t think i´ll be happy sending it, but i can´t buy a RAN if i don´t sell something, and my brother adores my jacksonn rr3 and the Sg, and i like more the warlock and the ibanez . But i don´t know, they aren´t very good guitars adn a RAn is , but i need to sell and i need Dariusz reply.

an active pickup will kindof isolate the sound incase you have a sucky tonewood. a passive pickups sound has to do with the type of wood and the build of the guitar.well it at least picks up on it.an active pickup sounds more steril.
