Megadeth frontman/guitarist Dave Mustaine revealed some interesting tidbits via Twitter earlier today. First up, the position for the new guitarist in the group has yet to be decided, with auditions still underway:
I’m excited to be auditioning one of my final picks for my new guitarist today.

Meanwhile, load in for the next record starts next Tuesday, March 17th—meaning the band will be moving their gear into a Nashville, TN area studio to begin tracking the effort:
One more week! Load in for the next record starts 3/17. So pumped!! — Dave Mustaine (@DaveMustaine) March 10, 2015
No mention was made of a potential new drummer for the lineup, but given past teases, that position may already be filled.
