The Evolution Neck and Bridge humbuckers are the result of two years of research to find the perfect sound for highly demanding guitarists: Steve Vai and his Ibanez Jems. Both pickups are designed for maximum impact and power. The neck pickup is thick, punchy, and noisy. The bridge pickup is firm, aggressive, and more powerful. Both pickups feature a patented dual-resonance configuration to reproduce more harmonic nuances than conventional humbuckers. Evolution pickups don't have a tame sound and are not for beginners, but if you have the skills and a good amplifier, your tone will ignite. Originally designed for live performances, Evolution pickups have such presence and definition that they are also excellent for recording; they cut through even the densest mixes.
