Traditionally used in the bridge position of your seven string guitar, this pickup will make your leads slice right through even the densest mix. When used in both neck and bridge positions the sound can only be described as blistering. Other recommended pairings include the classic 81-7X/85-7X setup and the versatile 81-7X/60-7X combo. EMG's solderless wiring will make installing this pickup easier than ever. Paired with EMG's X series preamp, the 81-7X effectively bridges the gap between passive and active touch sensitivity and tone.

Active humbucker pickup for 8-string electric guitar from EMG. Based off the popular EMG 81, the 81-8 utilizes powerful ceramic magnets and close aperture coils to produce a detailed tone with incredible amounts of high end cut, and fluid sustain. Traditionally used in the bridge position of your eight string guitar, this pickup will make your leads and low strings slice right through even the densest mix. When used in both neck and bridge positions the sound can only be described as blistering. Other recommended pairings include the 81-8/808 setup and the versatile 81-8/60-8 combo.

This one started out simply to be the Airbucker™ version of the Norton®. In DiMarzio thought it would make a distinctive-sounding bridge pickup with high-gain amps, but they soon discovered that it’s a radically neat neck pickup, too. The tone is deep and warm, but not muddy. It’s hot, but not distorted. It’s even got cool harmonics, which are really unusual for a neck humbucker. The patented Air Norton™ magnetic structure reduces string-pull, so sustain is improved; and pick attack and dynamics are tremendously controllable and expressive. Combine the Air Norton™ with an Air Zone™, The Tone Zone® or Steve’s Special™ in the bridge …

A humbucker pickup for neck or bridge position. The PAF Pro was created when chops-intensive playing was first starting to happen, and high-gain amps and rack systems were becoming popular. A pickup was needed that combined a lot of presence and “cut” with an open-sounding PAF vibe. The transparency of its sound lets the PAF Pro slice through heavy processing, where darker-sounding pickups get lost in the mud of the effects chain. Low notes have both snap and chunk, and there is a spike in the mid-range that gives the pickup a subtle “aw” vowel sound, like a wah-wah pedal stopped in the middle. Treble response is tweaked to produce highs that stand out without getting brittle. The PAF Pro make…

The 81TW humbucker doubles down on tone, taking the EMG 81 and adding a separate single coil pickup in the same housing. EMG has designed the dual-mode to allow for maximum flexibility, featuring two pickups in one humbucker. The original 81 provides all the crunch and attack it's famous for and the additional single-coil now gives players two classic tonal options to choose from. Either mode is accessed through a push/pull pot for ease and versatility. The internal preamp gives the 81TW two distinct sounds while delivering EMG's well known noise cancelling technology in both modes. Along with solderless installation, this is a great choice for guitar players looking to get more out of one pickup.…

Guitar single coil pickup for Stratocaster-type guitars, recommended for installation in all positions. Inspired by the pickup from the early sixties it guarantees a unique tonality of "Texas blues" sound - harder, but still pleasantly pure vintage sound, with smaller amount of magnetic pull and almost zero hum. It offers increased sensitivity to the way of playing and volume adjustment, and audible difference in noise reduction. It features 4 conductors and Alnico 2 magnet, output of 142 mV and 6.43 Ohms resistance. White colour design. Original Colour by Producer: White Colour: White Made in: USA

It's warm, it's friendly, it sounds like a vintage PAF® and will drop right into your Strat®. The Pro Track™ has enough power for any pickup position, and the twin black blades mean there won't be any problems with string-alignment or dropouts. In the bridge position, this is a great blues pickup: combine it with a Fast Track 1™ or Chopper™ (neck)and The Cruiser® (middle) for a solid mix. Match a Pro Track™ in the neck with a Fast Track 2™ or any full-size humbucker in the bridge position for a heavy yet versatile rock sound. Treble response on the Pro Track™ is smoother than that of typical vintage humbuckers. This makes for a good jazz sound in the neck position, as well as an excellent so…

If you love the sound of a Super Distortion® in the bridge and you like hot neck pickups too, try a Super 2™. The Super 2™ takes the classic Super Distortion® sound and slides the EQ up in favor of the high-end, so its brighter top and lighter bottom work to balance out the darker, overtone heavy information up by the fingerboard. The Super 2™ is just the pickup to clean up the overdrive sound of a mud-heavy 24¾'' scale, two-humbucker guitar or to add snap to a dark sounding 25½" bolt-on. It works great in the bridge or the neck. Neck position with equal or higher-power bridge pickup. Bridge position with equal or lower-power pickup (PAF Pro®, FRED®, Evolution® Neck). Color: Black.

“A player’s player” is a perfect description for Andy Timmons. He has great touch, phrasing, and tone. Since 2001, he has been playing a DiMarzio® custom bridge humbucker that has only been available on his signature Ibanez® guitar, and it has been his first-line pickup ever since. The outstanding characteristics of the DiMarzio AT-1™ are balance, warmth, and clarity. It achieves this blend with the same patented technology as the PAF® 36th Anniversary, but the sound is hotter and the focus is rock.

Have you ever heard a bridge pickup that made a guitar sound like a giant mosquito attack? If you’ve run into this problem, here is the solution. The Tone Zone® is hot enough to qualify as a high-output pickup, but it has a wider dynamic range — hard picking will produce a lot of power, and softer picking will be much cleaner and quieter. It’s got tremendous bass and low-mid response to reinforce the bottom end and make the overall sound bigger. The highest single notes have depth, and chords sound huge. Patented dual-resonance coils reproduce more overtones than you’d expect from such a fat-sounding pickup. It makes a great match with an Air Norton™, PAF Joe™,…

The Fast Track 1 is hotter and more muscular than The Cruiser, but it’s still very bright and clean sounding — not at all like a full-size humbucker. The dual-blade continuous magnetic field creates an even string balance with very little magnet-pull, eliminating the “out-of-tuneness” common to rod-magnet designs. The Fast Track 1 pickup’s power (double the output of a standard single-coil) makes it highly recommended in combination with medium - to - hot full-size humbuckers. You can also put a whole set of Fast Track 1 pickups in a Strat style guitar, or create custom sets with any of our other dual-blade models.

This little fella brings the famous performance of the Tone Zone® to a humbucking Strat® replacement pickup. Built in was the tremendous mid-range and bass response of the original Tone Zone®, and the same patented dual-resonance design produces great harmonics. DiMarzio also took into account the likelihood of installing The Tone Zone® S in the classic slanted Strat® bridge position, warming up the higher frequencies and brightening the low notes a little. It has 4-conductor wiring for parallel humbucking and split-coil modes, and makes a great bridge position combination with the Pro Track™, The Chopper™, and Fast Track 1™.

If you’re a serious traditional Strat player, you probably won’t want to know about pickups with side-by-side coils. But if you’re the player who’s up for something more modern with no 60-cycle hum, string drop-outs or sustain-killing magnet pull, we designed The Cruiser for you. Harmonic overtones are right where you expect them to be from a “true” single-coil, and the mid-range is open and vocal-sounding. It’s hotter than the traditional single-coil, and the bass strings have a bit more chunk; this is an excellent pickup to combine with medium-output humbuckers, and it maintains its tonal identity with high-gain amps and multiple effects. Wiring: 4 Conductor. Magnet: Ceramic. Output mV: 140.…

We love the sound of late 1950s humbuckers, but we didn't want to simply imitate them by using Alnico 2 or “aged” Alnico 5 magnets. Airbucker technology was created to capture all of the best sonic qualities of vintage humbuckers while avoiding the technical problems. The Air Classic has the same sweet sound as a classic humbucker, but Airbucker technology permits us to use a more reliable full-strength Alnico 5 magnet and still reduce string-pull to increase sustain and sensitivity. The result is an almost vocal, three-dimensional sound that jumps off the string faster and stays true as it sustains. The sense of touch and control this provides will offer you an unequalled ability to create your…

DiMarzio combined the best qualities of the Virtual Vintage® Solo and Virtual Vintage® Solo Pro™ — high output and a full, warm sound — and pushed these qualities even further. Treble response is smoother, the lows are tighter, and there is more pick attack. Play hard, and the sound jumps out of the amp. Play softer, and the sound becomes cleaner and quieter. Naturally, there's no hum.

Humbucker-type guitar pickup that produces the classic year-round Super Distortion sound of the 70s - 80s. It is primarily intended for mounting to the bridge, but it can also be used for the neck in combination with a low-gain amplifier. It is specially designed for full body guitars. Color version Black Cream.

Direct replacement-size pickup for bridge position in solid body guitars (can also be used in neck and middle) that offers the performance of the famous Super Distortion. It provides the same blend of power and tone that made the original the worldwide standard for high-output humbuckers, but also takes into account the fact that this model will be installed in the classic slanted bridge position. Treble response is smoother, and bass response is tighter. Because of their narrow ceramic magnetic fields, dual-blade Strat replacements are not generally well-known for their splitting ability. However, this pickup has a very good single-coil sound in split mode that is not brittle or weak. It has …

In 2006, DiMarzio took a close look at the most popular active neck and bridge humbuckers to see if they could capture all of the good qualities and eliminate the disadvantages: cold sound, limited dynamics, running out of headroom when played hard, and the need for batteries. The end results are the D Activator™ Neck and Bridge. They use coils tuned to specific frequencies. The purpose is to shift the resonant points of the pickups to the fundamentals and harmonics that you want to accentuate from the guitar, and they respond instantly to hard or light pick attack. The sound is powerful, clean, and open, with excellent harmonic overtones and very tight lows. The best way to describe the D Ac…
