Can't decide on bridge pickup

[FwuffyBunny]

OK, so, I have a BC Rich from somewhere between '88 and '92 that's in need of a ton of work. I'm going to repaint and rewire the thing. It's got spaces for HSS pickup-wise. I've decided on a YJM for neck and Duncan hotrails for the middle position. The bridge though, I don't know. I want something ridiculously hot without going active. I'm talking something that would make EVO's sound muddy. Any ideas?

Dimarzio X2N is the highest output they make and is perfect for metal

If not that, then you can go with the D-Activator (standard Xiphos pickup) which are based off an active design

or just a D-activator X
check into a Bare knuckle warpig as well

Brilliant. I think I'll do just this. Now if I can decide on a paint job. I'm thinking pink with purple hearts or maybe Hello Kitty...

i second d activator, really hot and not muddy, and sounds good clean with the volume knob rolled down. i use one in my mahogany S470

So, d activator over the X2N?

[callen3615]

with the x2n there is no clean tone, you must roll back the volume knob...but it is hot as hell. Im replacing mine though, gonna try the Seymour Duncan JB.

Seymour Duncan Custom 5, awesome balanced tone on that sucker.

D-X over X2N... I have both on two axe's...

X2N "thrashes"; a D-X puts your axe in uber-gain territory with the amp's gain at 5... very mids + bass heavy and enough treble to be slightly dark but not muddy...
X2N cleans are "spanky"... I can hear why this pup's been used for country... D-X cleans are natural with headroom... rolling down the volume to 3 or 4 gives it almost a bluesy sound...
regular D-Activators are better for pick dynamics out of the three IMO but not as in-your-face like a D-X but more dynamic than an X2N
However, a BC Rich + X2N = instant Chuck Schuldiner tone... not sure if that's the route you're going for

D-X it is.

Also, for anyone interested, I've decided on the paint job. I'm totally going to paint it pink with a black fade. Then I'm going to airbrush Hello Kitty on it. Only she's going to be in black leather, spikes, fishnets and stilettos. And maybe a ball gag.

Anyways, thanks for the input guys. I really appreciate it.
