Seymore Duncan Five-Two Pickups

The Ibanez features a set of Seymour Duncan Alnico Five-Two pickups, with one situated at the bridge, one at the neck and the other one in the middle, to produce a bright tone that's well balanced with a springy bottom end and smooth, rich top end. Even when subjugated to a distorted amp, the pickups are versatile enough to produce enough responsiveness to adjust the tone to something clean and with a softer attack. Along with the pickups comes controls to adjust the volume and tone and a 5-way selector switch to allows for the pickups to be used together or individually, making the TM1730M excellent for country, blues, classic rock or hard rock.
