    hello Ofer ! i have 3 dimebag guitars , washburn dime2st with a dimebucker , Dean dime o flage with wilde bill and becky and dean dime tribute with bill lawrence usa .
    I love them !
    My top 3 pickups is : 1 wilde bill and becky , 2 bill lawrence USA and 3 dimebucker !
    i love all of them , the wilde bill and becky is the better pickup , after the bill lawrence usa but less output but nice sounding , and last dimebucker too much output less precision but sound good .
    thanks for the video .
    take care.

      Not wired backwards, I just flipped the pickup, meaning that the bass side is on the high strings and the treble on the lows.

    audio engineer here (this ain’t my real name), I’ve been wanting to get this pick up. You did right getting the bill and becky. It’s a very full range pickup. Actually not a big fan of your tone here much, it’s pretty fizzy and a bit harsh. If I had to guess the microphone placement could be a bit better to get a more full tone. Just my opinion, but great playing. not sure if maybe you have mic angled too much

      Well I'm not an audio engineer and I had messed up my previous microphone placement and kinda tried different placements until I ended up with this one.
