Bill's website has split into two parts, by the looks of it. Not sure what the original site is for, at the moment, but for the pickups look here:

There are for all practical purposes, three versions of that product on the market (B&B, BLUSA, and Dimebucker). If whichever one you have works for you and you're happy with the sound, who's to say that's wrong?
I was only speaking of my own personal experiences. I guess I was getting carried away with my propaganda. I just know from experience that one is way better than the others that's all.'Howling in shadows

How & where did you order this B & BL pickup? I've been calling Wilde Bill's for 2 days and have sent them an e-mail about ordering one. I would dorder it through paypal but I'm having some trouble. I spoke to a woman on Monday and she said she'd call me right back as she was on the other line taking an order, but she never did.

My persistence has finally paid off, after calling again several times today I was able to get through to Becky and put in an order in for a L-500XL. Should be here next week. And yes, I am aware of the time difference between the East coast & the West coast.____________________________________________

in my experience id say BLUSA sucks and the dimebucker is on top so that leaves the B&B in the middle. of course this all depends on what you want. wanna play junk, get the BLUSA, want to play anything from classic rock to early metal then go B&B, but if you want to go extreme then the dimebucker.
as a side note: BLACKOUTS!!!!!!!!! i think i'm sellin all my emgs and replacing them with blackouts. why? cause they rule!!Last edited by jdr94; 04-08-2009, 02:38 PM.

I thought I read somewhere that Dime installed his L-500XL in upside down in his guitar, I don't remember where though. Which pickup was he using during the Far Beyond Driven era?____________________________________________

The C sounds more like a vintage pickup the R IIRC is the neck version of the L, the L is a great all around hard rock metal pickup. the XL is high output, & imo sounds alot like a cross between an EMG 85 & 81.
& yes they are hard to get in touch with sometimes its a small family run business.
