David Gilmour actually uses a set of EMG single coils too. They're excellent blues pickups. I don't like their humbuckers much though.
As for the ibanez stuff...they actually make some EXCELLENT classic rock guitars. Its just that, as you and I both know very well apparently, they carved out a niche for themselves as a rock and metal player and have stayed in that vein for the bulk of their lines. They're very versatile instruments even in that range, but the semi-hollows they make are fantastic.
This one for example, I would love to own, although the cocobolo topped version they were producing last year looked better to me.

Its an EXCELLENT compromise between classic sensibility and modern advancement. Classic tonal structure and fixed bridge, classic style pickups etc. But in a better shape with a quick tune tailpiece, etc.
