Sorry if I'm off base, but have you got effects covered?

That kind of variety of tone is not only about pickups. You need a decent clean channel on your amp, some sort of distortion pedal (or another channel on your amp, or both!) and all sorts of other bits if you want to get close.

Some of these guys spend more on their rigs than I'll earn in a lifetime. I have guitars with stock Ibanez pickups (a radius & RG770DX) and they sound fine. I reckon you'd be better off spending the time and money on a multi effects unit if you don't have one... they're available at all sorts of price points and give good 'bang for buck'.

If you have got one, spend more time messing with it, I think it'll pay off...
