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™. Magnet Type: Ceramic Made in: …

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 …

An SD in a P90 cover? Cool! DiMarzio’s Super Distortion® has been the industry standard since its introduction in the early 70s. The new P90 Super Distortion™ is their highest-output humbucking “soapbar” replacement, and it gives players with guitars routed for P90-style pickups the ability to upgrade their pickups without any modification to the guitar. Like the original Super Distortion®, it has 12 adjustable pole pieces and 4-conductor wiring for split and parallel humbucking modes.

The Super Distortion® S offers the performance of the famous Super Distortion® in a humbucking Strat® bridge direct replacement-size pickup. We've built in the same blend of power and tone that made the original Super Distortion® the worldwide standard for high-output humbuckers. We also tweaked the sound to take into account the fact that the Super Distortion® S will be installed in the classic slanted bridge position. The new model 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™.

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. 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 Activator™ Neck pickup is that it is big, bright, and open sounding with surprising string …

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 D Activator™ Bridge has an enriched harmonic quality and the notes want to sing. Both the D Activator™ Neck and Bridge pickups were designed to eliminate the sterile edginess commonly associated with active pickups. The D Activator™ Bridge pickup is about 25% louder than the D Activator™ Neck. Since we were developing both pickups as a set from the ground up, we adjusted the volume levels on the pickups so they are balanced. That way when you switch from the neck to the bridge, you don’t hear a drop in volume — also a frequent problem with active pickups — and they don’t use batteries.

For nearly 30 years, the DiMarzio® X2N® has been the top choice for all-out power. In the last couple of years were developed totally new ways to combine power with clarity, which first resulted in the D Activator™. Now experience the D Activator-X™ Bridge model. It features the same striking look as the X2N®, but with adjusted output and tuned coils to different frequencies to create a powerful sound wide open with a surprisingly clean sound when the volume control is rolled down, even with extreme metal and high-gain amps. The Neck model is designed to produce a highly focussed attack centered on the upper mid range, with less magnet pull and output in order to balance …

Here are the characteristics that make a great vintage humbucker: a soft magnetic field, sweet tone, perfect balance between warmth and clarity, the ability to go from clean to distorted by pick attack alone. The PAF® 36th Anniversary Bridge is hotter than the Neck. It is not only for set neck 24¾” scale guitars, but it’s also an excellent bridge pickup for trem-equipped bolt-ons. The PAF® 36th Anniversary was built any way you want it. The PAF® 36th Anniversary Bridge is available uncovered, and also with three types of covers — standard polished and plated, buffed with no plating, and vintage worn cover that looks so authentic and broken in that you’ll swear it’s been hanging around since 1…

One thing has stayed consistent throughout John Petrucci’s long and successful career: the DiMarzio® pickups in his guitars. John has been pushing the envelope of progressive metal since the late eighties, and the DiMarzio® LiquiFire™ Neck Model resulted from most recent collaboration with John. He used it throughout Dream Theater’s tenth studio album, "Black Clouds & Silver Linings". John swears this is the best live and studio sound he has ever had. He wanted a neck pickup with a flowing, singing solo tone when used with a heavily overdriven amp and a clear chord sound with a clean amp setting.

One thing has stayed consistent throughout John Petrucci’s long and successful career: the DiMarzio pickups in his guitars. John has been pushing the envelope of progressive metal since the late eighties, and the new DiMarzio Crunch Lab Bridge Model ensued from our most recent collaboration with John. He used it throughout Dream Theater’s tenth studio album, “Black Clouds & Silver Linings”. John swears this is the best live and studio sound he has ever had, and the name says it all — “crunch” is what it’s all about with a big, tight sound that’s neither muddy nor thin. The Crunch Lab is noteworthy (bad pun alert) for what it doesn’t do: it’s not a screamer, and it’s not about thundering lows. I…

The DiMarzio Vintage Minibucker™ sound is all about clarity, dynamics, and lots of sparkle. In a word, the DiMarzio Vintage Minibucker™ has chime. It excels at clean, country sounds, but it also shines with extreme levels of amp gain because it doesn't get muddy with a distorted amp. This is an excellent Tele® neck pickup. It balances very well with most Tele® bridge pickups, and it performs equally well with crystal-clean amps and extreme overdrive. Although it is a fairly bright pickup, it isn't harsh-sounding and will also perform well in the bridge position of both solid and semi-hollow body guitars.

Concept of a vintage minibucker bridge pickup calls for a sound that jumps out of the speaker when the strings are picked hard, with a round tone and no mud. If a PAF could fit in a minibucker cover, this is what it would sound like. Although this pickup was originally designed for the bridge position, it's also an excellent neck pickup for players looking for a warm, jazz tone. It has a well-balanced overall sound, which allows it to work well in many different guitars and musical situations, and split mode produces a chimey, Strat-like sound. It's not quite as loud as a PAF, but it reacts immediately. Number of Strings: 6 Colour: Silver Тype: Humbucker Original Colour by Producer: Nickel Position: B…

The best way to know how well a pickup will perform is to play it in the real world. That’s exactly what Mark Morton did.

Designed for John Petrucci’s Music Man JP13™ guitar, the new Neck and Bridge Models are the next generation in John’s signature pickups with DiMarzio. John says he looks for versatility in his pickups so that he’s able to span a multitude of different sounds within one guitar, going from massive overdrive, very tight, rhythmical and aggressive to “more expressive, dynamic and very liquid” when he plays solos. They’re a bit bold — with more of the clarity and presence. John used the Illuminator™ and Illuminator 7™ pickups during the recording of Dream Theater’s self-titled album.

Jake Bowen is one of a new generation of guitarists on top of progressive rock. Its sound helps redefine the rock guitar and its pickups play a major role. The Titan Neck and Bridge pickups were developed for his new Ibanez guitar.Jake's bridge sensor is crucial to its sound, and the most important feature is that the sound must be solid. The pickup has good right-handed dynamics, but at the same time retains the aggressiveness and medium range required by progressive music. The Titan Bridge model is at home with both standard and drop tuning.

The Dark Matter 2™ represents a change in direction for Steve Vai towards a more organic, smoother sound with softer highs and less raw power. The Dark Matter 2™ Bridge Model has a very modern approach that blends clarity and warmth while avoiding both mud and shrillness. It shines with everything from pristine clean to massive overdrive. High output pickups can sometimes have anomalies in the high register, meaning they have some sharp edges. While they’re definitely high output like Steve’s other pickups, the new Dark Matter 2™ pickups are engineered with a slight softness on the top end. This pickup is specifically EQed to match the earthy, organic aura of the …

Designed for Steve Vai’s signature Ibanez PIA guitar, the UtoPIA™ Bridge pickup features a custom, laser cut baroque style cover over a gold patterned layer.Using the Evolution® Bridge as the basic platform, the UtoPIA™ Bridge was designed to focus more on the low-end response of the guitar while adding thickness and body to the top end. The challenge was to still deliver the harmonics for which the Evolution® is known. Upper midrange frequencies were also dialed back to produce a less aggressive attack and provide more control. The UtoPIA™ Bridge boasts a big, bold low end, high output, and thick top end. Wiring: 4 pole Тype: Humbucker DC Resistance: 12,95 kOhm Impedance: 1…
