Hello
I decided to change my pickups. First of all, most of the time I play Metal (Death/Thrash/Folk) but sometime I needs a good clean sound too with the split coil.
I have an RG370DX with H-S-H configuration as you know. My tuning is Drop C with 0.11 ~ 0.52 D'addario strings.

\BRIDGE POSITION/
--------------------
Well. I have compared the
Dimarzio X2N with the
Seymour Duncan JB in bridge position and I liked the JB a bit more than the X2N in Standerd E (X2N had a bit more treble than the JB).I tried it in Drop D but there was something like a *farting* sound. I didn't try to go any lower in tuning, but seems the JB wasn't good for me. Has anyone tried the X2N in lower tunings ? How it is good in Standard E from your point of view ?
If X2N is not good in your opinion, What would you suggest in Bridge position ? (Don't tell me about D-Activators/D-Activators X because they are not available at local store beside me
Bad Luck.)

\NECK POSITION/

Ok, that is the hard honestly. I am lost here. What pickup that could match the X2n nicely ?!
I need it to be good at harmonics and not muddy of course.
I am still fine with PAF Joe + X2N as a metal set, but if there is another choices, I'd like to hear them ^^
I heard that Super Distortion + X2N is a good combination too. But I never listened to anything from this combination.
Sorry for my English.
Thanks a lot
