The HS1, an humbucker-sized, single-coil pickup on the DN400
Other pickups made by Ibanez which don't belong to any regular line. Most of them are pickups from the late 80's, mid 90's and not much is known about them.
Some of them are very exclusive pickups which are found on non-standard series.
Custom wound for Allan Holdsworth's signature guitars. Features alnico magnets and custom coil winding for a clear, smooth, warm tone. All twelve polepieces are adjustable to allow maximum control over string-to-string volume.
Has one traditional coil and one with a blade. Delivers a "fat", harmonically active sound. The most powerful lead pickup in the American-Designed series.
A single-coil-sized humbucker, twin blade, which often comes along with the HB2 humbucker (see above). Can be used in the neck position, like the RG565 or in the middle and neck positions as seen on the RBM series (Reb Beach signatures), like the RBM1.
A single-coil-sized humbucker, twin blade like the SB1. Can be found in the neck/ mid position either with a SB1 in the bridge, or with Axis pickups in the bridge.
Ibanez claims these were the hottest single coils of their type. They have a new magnet structure and twice the windings of a traditional single coil of their era. They deliver high output with clarity, fullness and excellent top end.[5]
Delivers warm, bright tone. 42 gauge wire and plastic cover. Offers powerful clear sound even at low volume. Polarity is reversed for middle pickup application.[2]
Offered with three separate covers with identical internals: ○ Super 7 has exposed pole pieces ○ Super 7F has a flat cover (hidden polepieces) ○ Super 7FT has a "tub" style direct-mount high tech cover which is designed to offer increased sustain.[7][8]
Delivers powerful mid-range punch.[2] Arched bladed bar (58mm x 5mm) balances each string and eliminate volume deterioration caused by string bending. Powerful magnetic field enables marvelous sustain and high output. Wax potting results in a smooth and warm distortion.[11]
The V7 is a single-coil pickup with a similar design.
Delivers powerful, bright tone. 42 gauge wire.[2] Arched bladed bar (58mm x 5mm) balances each string and eliminate volume deterioration caused by string bending. Offers great lows and brilliant highs. Single-coil version of the V5 pickup.[12]
The V7T has identical internals as the V7 with a molded in-body direct mounting cover.[13]
This pickup is not related to the similarly named V7 humbucker.
Humbucker-sized, P90-style, single-coil pickups introduced in 2009 in the Darkstone series, along with the PP1 humbuckers. They produce loud and crunchy tones that cut through for hard rock and punk styles.
The tube pole-piece construction of the new pickups designed for the Darkstone series offers quick response, sparkling clarity and added harmonics for a humbucker sound.The PP1 were re-named CAP-PP1 in 2011.
