Is there a list of custom pups Duncan makes?

I know they can make anything, but is there a list anywhere of CS pickups that famous artists have ordered?? I am particularly curious about Iron Maiden. I believe that Dave Murray uses regular hot rails, because my strat sounds just like his. I believe Janick uses regular JB Jr.'s, but his sound a little hotter than mine do. And then there's Adrian, who plays custom JB's sometimes. So could I ask the custom shop to give me the pickups that Janick Gers ordered or that Adrian Smith ordered, and they would give me those exact pickups?

the custom shop JB's are usually older ones, wound by MJ. jan has a tubescreamer in front of the whole chain and if you ask me, that makes his sound the way it is. H uses a dimarzio PAF in most of his guitars. but the whole CS list can be foundhere

and i reckon its more likely that his amps are modded rather than his pickups, if anything has been modded at all...

I know there are more custom shop pickups than are on that list. You should call MJ at the custom shop and ask.

Wow, Janick doesn't use the Marshall distortion that comes in his JMP-1?

That´s not said, the Tubescreamer can just be used as a boost pedal ;)

Yup he probably uses it to slam the pre-tubes in that JMP-1.

what the guys said. he uses it as a boost for the whole rig.
