As some of you may know from watching some live slayer vids in one of his guitars he has an odd looking ''pickup'' in his neck postion.

this was filmed at music live and the guitar u see leaning up against that marshall is mine and he signed it and played it :O!

    I'll explain this for the people here. I've gotten to play one of his guitars so I got to check out how he had this all set up. He has the sustainer pickup in his neck pickup slot, he has a switch to activate the sustainer function of it. When the sustainer function is off it functions as a normal active pickup. In his bridge pickup slot he has a normal humbucker.
  • @dimebagisgod13 it has a driver in the neck that does the work. the bridge pickup is the actual pickup that reads the vibration and makes the signal etc.
  • @karlb1
    @dimebagisgod13 The 401 kit comes with the single coil 'driver' for the neck and a high output humbucker, but you don't have to use the humbucker in the kit as long as your pickup in the bridge is fairly high output, you can get a 101 kit that just has the circuits and a neck humbucker' driver'

  • @WillThePlank
    you could if you had a guitar with space for 3 pickups
  • @WillThePlank
    I'm pretty sure it works on the principle of a humbucker except one of the coils then has electricty passed through it to make a magnetic field. Don't quote me on that as I may be wrong. I will find out the correct way of how it works and get back to you.
