"**Interviewer:** *Why did you change out your stock pickups?* **Bouillet:** 'One reason is for live touring. I like to have some of my guitars matched as far as output and response. Another reason is that I’ve had the luxury of trying different pickups in the same guitar through the same amp. And the [JBs](https://www.seymourduncan.com/pickup/jb) were always one of the best sounding. I have stayed with [JBs](https://www.seymourduncan.com/pickup/jb) in my main two guitars. A 1978 Les Paul Standard, and a 1978 Ibanez pf300. The sound of my [JBs](https://www.seymourduncan.com/pickup/jb) are smooth and even, with a solid output. Not too fuzzy or scooped.'"

Like his influences – Bathory, Venom, English Dogs, Possessed, Broken Bones – TOXIC HOLOCAUST featured blazing riffs, gravel-throated vocals, and a deadly fixation on the evil in man and a post-apocalyptic world. Grind wrapped all of these elements up with a DIY attitude." - Seymour duncans official description
