Just got another new guitar... need help with pickups

My buddy just gave me a ESP LTD EX-50. I want to put a Dimarzio X2N pickup in there... but I want to know what other pickup the rest of you (who own an X2N) combo this one with?

I play in a thrash/death band and I'm looking for that brutal yet distinctive sound... I guess in the sense of Max Cavalera.

I just use the stock pickups on all of the rest of my guitars; hence why I'm not too sure what to do here.

Thanks

A Soulfly sound or a Sepultura sound, of which you have about three sounds to pick from (Roots-era, Arise-and-before-era and Chaos A.D.-era).

Sorry... the last time I came to this message board was months ago when I was instructed to buy a Dimarzio X2N. Haha now I'm just looking for the perfect match!

I like your signature antipunx, very humorous.
