Re-create an Iconic Thrash Metal Tone

You'll be hard-pressed to find a metal guitarist anywhere who doesn't respect Dave Mustaine's Rust in Peace-era tone. The tight lows, scooped mids, and aggressive highs that fueled the album's breakneck riffs, complex arrangements, fluid time signatures, and blazing-fast leads are the stuff of myths and legends. Now, thanks to Seymour Duncan, you can harness that sound for yourself. The Dave Mustaine Thrash Factor bridge pickup is perfectly complemented by the Seymour Duncan '59 Model SH-1 neck pickup. Drop the Dave Mustaine Thrash Factor Pickup Set into your axe, crank up a British stack, and you'll re-create one of the most iconic guitar tones in metal history.

A JB unlike any other

Dave Mustaine's guitar tone on Rust in Peace epitomizes thrash metal. He primarily achieved this sound using a guitar loaded with a Seymour Duncan SH-4 JB bridge pickup. Dave maintains that the sound of the JB in this guitar was markedly different than an off-the-shelf pickup. To create the Dave Mustaine Thrash Factor, Seymour Duncan worked closely with Dave, employing an altered winding process to duplicate the tone of his JB. The result is similar to an SH-4 JB, but with tighter lows, slightly scooped mids, and more aggressive highs. If you've been searching for a way to hot rod your axe, this is it!
