I have a neck-through Ibanez rg42, its the 2002 model which comes with a pair of Ibanez Infinity humbuckers. They sound good, but If I feel at times there is something missing. I used to use a Duncan blade humbucker on my old guitar. It produced a more seering tone and more chunk when I palm muted. The drop sonic is half bar and half pole pieces. It seems like it would be the perfect balance between mild and edgy tone.
