Dimarzio Paf Pro Vs Ibanez INF1

More guitar demos: http://www.youtube.com/user/NoisyStrings

I found that the INF1 pickup has more gain and gives a little more sustain, but on the clean channel sounds a bit muddy. Paf Pro has less saturation, less sustain but great dynamics (especially when shredding and hard picking) and it sounds more like a strat on the clean channel. I'm happy with it :)

I apologize for the dark sections, by the time I finished installing the pickups it was getting dark and didn't realize until I watched the video :P

Gear used:
Ibanez RGT42DXFM-TLF
Vox DA-5 (2w mode)

hey dude i have the same guitar, i can chance the bridge? for a original floyd rose???

[NoisyStrings]

@61610x

I'm not sure. I'd suggest you to find out the dimensions of the original floyd rose tremolo and compare it with the current one.

Hey question. I have an s520ex guitar. I have money for one PAF pro pickup.  Would you reccomend putting it in the bridge or the neck position? And are there any issues mixing and matching the INF and the PAF pro, like volume differences? Any help would be appreciated. thanks so much.

@punkmusicmetal

Hi there, I have the PAF Pro in the neck position and although it can be put in the bridge as well I haven't tried it. I would considered the INF too hotter for the PAF but this really depends on the sound you want to get. If you can only get the PAF for now, it wouldn't hurt placing it and see if you like the combination. You will notice a slightly difference in volume but this can be solved by adjusting the pickups high.

@punkmusicmetal

Choosing the right pickups can be an endless task. If you have a guitarist's tone you admire, found out the pickups he's using and get those for a start. Take into account that pickups not only change the sound but the feel as well, so the best way to find out what's best for you is by trial an error. On ebay you can get second hand pickups for half the price which make this task more feasible. Cheers

Dude i have the same guitar, and i want to buy some new pickups. I have in mind the dimarzio evolution and the paf pro. My question is, do you think it's a good combination a paf pro (neck) with a evolution (bridge)?

Thanks!

[NoisyStrings]

@wilson53

I don't see why they wouldn't match well. The evolution is hotter than the paf pro so, if that is what you want, go for it.

[Rickles]

The difference is night and day LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!

[brandon5pennies]

the paf pro is way better more defined and clear

[61610x]

@Schpudd no problem, maybe in the future you and me will talk about guitars etc, greetings.

[Chaif15Let]

@Rickles LOL!!! Good one! :D

[Schpudd]

@61610x Whoa super sorry dude, I've got confused with another video... But hope the advice helped either way - feel free to message me

[61610x]

@Schpudd no dude, the guitar in this video is a RG series my guitar is a Ibanez RGT42DXFM is the same guitar in this video, greetings!!

[Schpudd]

@61610x If you've got an Ibanez S, you don't have an edge iii. Are you sure you have this guitar?

If you do have an edge iii, however - the edge pro is a direct swap yes.

[61610x]

@Schpudd some guy here in YT tell me that answer, beacuse I have this guitar and the edge iii no is so good, but this same guy tell me about edge pro or original edge is maybe compatible,, thanks dude!! anyway.

[Schpudd]

@61610x No you can't and why would you want to? Buy a guitar with an original floyd rose to begin with, or learn about the ZR trem you've got and why they're actually one of the best Ibanez do.

@NoisyStrings se lo pondrias a una guitarra ephipone dot?

[Whyrendog]

I was listening to this in the background and the Ibanez INF1 really blew me away. I had to see what it was, certainly it was a PAF but guess not! Nice demo. Might have to pick one up.

[stroke117]

@61610x look the edge pro and original edge
