- Like most folks, the choice between USA Dimarzio IBZ and Japan Ibanez IBZ pickups keeps me up at night. In this vid I present them head-to-head using RG440s from the same year using the same setup - a Strymon Iridium at about 80% drive on the Marshall sim setting and the Fender Deluxe sim for a run through the pickup selector.
There is a massive disparity between the single-coil pickups - the IBZ USA models measure absurdly high output, as they are stacked humbucking pickups. Despite the output gap, the true single coil IBZ Japan pickups “stack-up” surprisingly well against the Dimarzios.
Thoughts? Questions? Unsolicited links for dirty stuff? Leave them in the comments!
One or both of these Ibanez RG440's will be available soon from 121212Guitars:
