Dimarzio - DP297FNCR Super Distor'Tron Nickel / Cream

Back to the roots of big sound with the DiMarzio Super Distor'Tron DP297FNCR humbucker! The brand has combined two worlds: the sacred fire of the Super Distortion, the pickup that shook up the world of guitar in the 70s, and the stylish, practical format of a Filter'Tron. The result? A pickup with a vintage look but a strong character.

In the bridge position, it produces a thick, fat grain that's always easy to read. Notes don't slurp, chords snap and solos rise to the ceiling without straining. The secret? Ultra-reactive ceramic magnets and a design that retains all the attack even at very high volume.

Do you play big rock, hard or even old school metal? This is just the thing. And if you like to be in control, its 4-wire wiring opens up a whole host of options for exploring finer or sharper sounds.

It's a mic that's been used (or come close to being used) by the likes of Ace Frehley and Al Di Meola.
