I heard that Dave Mustaine was using the X2N pickup back to the day Rust in Peace. But from the Holy war video in Rusted Pieces DVD, it can be seen that the X2N was on the neck position, while the bridge pickup had an ordinary humbucker look (two row of dots). Anyone know what the bridge pickup is? May it be a JB (I don't think a JB can balance with an X2N on the neck, as the latter is extremely hot)?

Re: Megadeth RIP pickup?
I always thought he used the jb for Rust In Peace, maybe not. I am almost positive he used a Lawrence L500XL bridge for Peace Sells though. -

Re: Megadeth RIP pickup?
I recall seeing ads of him with his signature V, which had a Lawrence XL-500 bridge and Jackson neck pickupComment

Re: Megadeth RIP pickup?
other way around the JB was in the bridge and the lawrence was in the neck. The signature King V I used to have came loaded that way."It keeps you fit - the alcohol, nasty women, sweat on stage, bad food - it's all very good for you." -Bon Scott

you better than any girlfriend, because it screams louder, it's easier to pick up, and it shuts up when you take your plug out." -Rip GlitterComment

Re: Megadeth RIP pickup?
Thanks for all the inputs.
This makes sense as I can't tell XL500 and X2N apart from the video. Anyway I don't think X2N can be a good neck pup.
