This is for all the Dimelovers out there. I'm thinking of getting a B&B l500xl "neck" and was wondering what to use in bridge for a dimebag configuration. SD site says he used 59 bridge, but not sure if that will work.

59b in the neck slot is correct.
SH-13 dimebucker in the bridge would be my choice, but really that would depend on what the guitar's natural timbre was.

They are a bunch of configurations that Dimebag used
L500xl with super distortion
L500xl with 59 bridge in the neck
Duncan distortion set
Dimebucker with 59 bridge in the neck

The amp is far more important for the Dime CFH/Vulgar style sound
Scooped, boosted, gated solid state Randall with a high output pickups
In terms of amps I’d go for the old Randall RGs or the RG3003h then put a tubescreamer in front of it (dime used a frowny face EQ curve on a ten band EQ to boost then proceeding to scoop it after with the amp EQ)
