DiMarzio DP100 Super Distortion Pickup

Electric Guitar Pickups

This is the pickup that started it all. Many of the classic Rock guitar sounds of the 70's and 80's were produced by a Super Distortion� and a raging tube amp. But don't confuse classic with outdated.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.

REVIEWS
Feature:
With an on/on/on 3-way switch you can have 2-coil parrallel,single coil and 2-coil series. Or an on/off/on switch you get coil-1,2-coil series and coil-2.

Quality:
Had mine for years without a problem.

Sound:
Thick and chunky!!!! I love to rattle the walls and shake the windiws.

Overall:
I see a lot of people complaining about it being too muddy. It's not the pickup, it's the volume control. The more you turn it down the muddier it'll get. Put in a 1 meg volume pot or stick a .001 capacitor between the input and the output tabs of your volume control. You can find them at any radio shack. Then it will stay bright and sharp as you turn the volume down. see www.guitarelectronics.com or TURN DOWN THE BASS ON YOUR AMP!!!!!
