Product Detail
The DiMarzio Super Distortion Humbucker Pickup in black sparked a sound revolution. Before its invention in the early 70s, replacement pickups were non - existent. It was the first pickup crafted to push a tube amp into full overdrive, and remains the benchmark for high - output pickups. With a perfect mix of power and tone, single - notes and chords blast out of the amp, filling the room or track with a wall of sound. The classic tone balance features thick, boosted mids, big lows, and fat highs. You've heard this iconic sound on platinum records for over three decades, from legends like Ace Frehley, Al Di Meola, and Paul Gilbert. It's also super versatile, with 4 - conductor wiring enabling quick access to Strat® - like split and series - parallel modes. Discover why thousands of great players love it: it's the ultimate all - around high - power pickup.
Using the DiMarzio Super Distortion Humbucker Pickup is easy. It's mainly for the bridge position, but you can use it in the neck position with a low - gain amp. If you have a solid - body guitar, it'll work great. For hollow or semi - hollow guitars, it might be a bit hard to control due to its warm, high output. When it comes to wiring, the 4 - conductor setup gives you different modes. Coil - splitting gives you a Strat® - like tone and power. Parallel wiring is similar to splitting but still humbucking and has a bit of a hollow sound. As for maintenance, keep it clean and free from dust. If you're not using it for a long time, store it in a dry place. That way, you can enjoy its amazing sound for a long time.
