DiMarzio FRED® humbuckers take the PAF Pro® up a notch with more gain, mid EQ and overtones. It's a sound with more crank and growl. FRED®'s wide, fat tone fills up a lot of space in the mix : a great pickup with combined lead / rhythm styles and power trio gigs.

DiMarzio DP213 PAF Joe Pickup - Joe described this tone as being "tubular". Through the use of Virtual Vintage® technology, clear-sounding low frequencies are blended with warm-sounding mids and high frequencies, which makes the PAF Joe™ equally good for chords and single notes. It was first used by Joe throughout the 2003 G3 tour.

Both pickups are designed for maximum impact and power. The neck pickup is fat, punchy and loud. The bridge pickup is tight, aggressive and louder. Both pickups have our patented dual-resonance configuration to reproduce more harmonic overtones than conventional humbuckers.

DiMarzio DP-155 Tone Zone for bridge - Because the lows, mids, and highs are all boosted, using a Tone Zone feels like cranking up an extra set of tone controls. It adds further dimension to the sound of your amp - that elusive edge that can make a good-sounding rig into a great-sounding one. Notes seem to get bigger after they're picked, and burn hard as they sustain.

DiMarzio Super Distortion DP-100 Bridge Pickup

 BEST SELLER

DiMarzio DP-100 Super Distortion for bridge - But don't confuse classic with outdated. Diverse artists from Al DiMeola, Frank Gambale and Vinnie Moore to Metal veterans Iron Maiden and Ace Frehley have chosen the Super Distortion® as an integral part of their personal sound. With plenty of output and mid-boost to boot your amp into overdrive, Super Distortion® humbuckers put out a hot, thick tone with a tight bottom-end: a classic tone when plugged directly into the front-end of any high-gain tube amplifier. Used in the bridge position of a locking-trem equipped guitar, the Super Distortion® puts back low-end the tremolo can bleed off.

DiMarzio PAF Pro DP-151 Bridge / Neck Pickup

DP-151
Weight: g
 BEST SELLER

The PAF Pro®  was created when chops-intensive playing was first starting to happen, and high-gain amps and rack systems were getting 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.

A Note about Dimarzio GUITAR PICKUPS

Note on F-Spacing: The majority of guitars will use F-Spacing pickups - certainly most Ibanez guitars. Exceptions are Gibsons with ABR bridges, some MusicMan guitars and guitars fitted with Kahler Tremolos. F-spacing refers to a wider* spacing between pole pieces for improved alignment with the strings on most guitars with tremolos and many newer fixed-bridge instruments. All DiMarzio full-sized humbuckers are available in standard* spacing or F-spacing at the same price. F-spaced humbuckers should be used in the neck or bridge position when the distance between the high and low E strings measures 51 mm or greater over the pickup. * Standard is 48mm. Please specify “F” or Standard” at the time you place your order. The X2N®  & D’Activator-X come in one spacing for all guitars.

Note on Colours: DiMarzio® full-sized humbuckers come standard in (both bobbins) Black but are also available in (both bobbins) Cream or in Black/Cream at no additional charge. Many are also available in these Custom Colours: Blue, Green, Pink, Red, Purple, White, Yellow or mixed standard & custom colours at a 10% higher price, or in Camouflage at a 30% higher price. Most “12 allen screw polepiece” humbuckers are available with chrome, black or gold polepieces. Changing the standard polepiece colour is a Custom Option at a 10% higher price. But a Custom Bobbin Colour WITH polepiece change only attracts ONE 10% upcharge.  See www.dimarzio.com  for available colours & standard polepiece colours for all models.

Typical Colours (not all colours available for every pickup)

Black / Cream / Zebra (Black/Creme) are Standard (Others + 10% Premium)
