What Dimarzio's Do You Have In Strats


I'm just wondering what Dimarzio pups you guys have in your strats, both humbuckers and singles, and how do you like them?

Re: What Dimarzio's Do You Have In Strats


No DiMarzios for me, I'm sticking with the Fender Hot Noiseless set.

Although if I were to use DiMarzios, I'd use two Class of '55s (if I could find them) and an HS-2, or two Area '58s and an Area '67

I'm thinking of putting a Paf Pro in mine with my YJM in the neck. I tend to like humbuckers in the bridge.

I built a chambered strat and I put a Lil'59 in the neck, a Duckbucker in the middle and a Evolution in the bridge.

Re: What Dimarzio's Do You Have In Strats


In my custom alder strat I have a paf-pro in the bridge and it sounds better then the one I installed in my basswood RG. And I have a chopper in the neck which is excellent and recomended.
In my fender custom shop strat, mahogany with maple top I have a set of The original fender lace sensors. A red/red humbucker in the bridge, silver and blue in the middle and neck.

Re: What Dimarzio's Do You Have In Strats


2 posts above - your cat's expression is priceless. It's like..."youre thinking about NOT using Dimarzios?? Huh?"

I have dimarzios in both of my custom axes. My first one has a cruiser neck, area 61 middle, steve special bridge, my second one has air norton neck, cruiser mid, evo 2 bridge (all coil tapped). Love em. Steve Special is by far my favorite.

Re: What Dimarzio's Do You Have In Strats


I had a bunch of dimarzio virtual vintage pickups in my strat for a while. They were great at what they did, but I was looking for authentic vintage type tones from my strat so I ended up replacing them with traditional single coils. Humcancelling singles always lack something to my ears.

Re: What Dimarzio's Do You Have In Strats


One strat with Area 58 neck and mid and Area 61 bridge

Another strat with Pro Track Neck, Chopper Neck in mid and Fast Track 2 in bridge.

Both of them are ear-gasmic in their own ways.
