Great idea, great neck, horrible pickups

Played this in a store a few times and loved it. The neck is extremely comfortable, the High C string makes it a lot of fun to jam and play some chords on. Bass has a nice balance to it. Natural tone (unplugged) is great. Sadly the pickups are horrible. Lifeless and dead and usually lost in the mix. The ramp and the pickups are also too long to function as they should. If using it as an anchor it should be (to me and most others I've talked to about this) about the same distance and length as another string would be. Like a J pickup anchor is just long enough to feel like another string. Frets work is nice and above average. Out of the box I had to raise the action a hair and set the intonation a bit. For $1000 I would expect a) better pickups and b) at least a decent gig bag if not a case. I like the idea and with some tweaking Ibanez COULD have a winner here.
