I'm looking for a good pickup combo for bridge/neck. Music123.com has the JB/Jazz set that looks pretty good. I play mainly Thrash and Death.

dimarzio air norton(neck) and tone zone (bridge, obviously 
) are one of the best combinations around.

you can never go wrong with the emg 81-85

wait that has a floyd, you need a trembucker (humbucker with coils spaced for special tremolos).

Anyway let me throw out some combination
Dimarzio:
PAF Pro neck and bridge
Tone Zone in the bridge, Air Norton in the neck
Evolution, bridge and neck
Seymour Duncan:
Distortion bridge and a 59 in the neck
Invader in the bridge and a jazz or 59 or pearly gates in the neck
JB in the bridge and 59 or jazz in the neck
Dimarzio:
PAF Pro neck and bridge
Tone Zone in the bridge, Air Norton in the neck
Evolution, bridge and neck

that's called an F-Spaced bridge pickup. don't forget to get that aeon or the strings won't align with the magnets in the bridge pick up.CFH Eternal wrote:wait that has a floyd, you need a trembucker (humbucker with coils spaced for special tremolos).

I'm thinking of this, DiMarzio X2N for the Bridge but what for the neck?

make sure you order the bridge pickup with f spacing, but if you get the x2n no worries but its gonna sound super high.aeon wrote:What?hippy wrote:that's called an F-Spaced bridge pickup. don't forget to get that aeon or the strings won't align with the magnets in the bridge pick up.CFH Eternal wrote:wait that has a floyd, you need a trembucker (humbucker with coils spaced for special tremolos).

Hmm, Warhead Dime did a Dimarzio X2N and a PAF Pro in the neck, said it was pretty sweet.
Posted: Sun May 22, 2005 5:01 pm
i havent put in the PAF yet, but the X2N is fucking amazing, i love it.

make your own fuckin pickups shit bag

emg 81/85 are the way to go.
I haved used just about every seymore made and the distortions are good and but hum alittle. You can get them in their mayhem set for the right price.
the emg's are just awsome pickups. they are quiet,very clear,great harmonics.
all 4 of my guitars have emg's in them now.
Just my 2 cents
