DiMarzio DP163BK Bluesbucker Humbucker Guitar Pickup, Black

DiMarzio is best known around the world for their superb direct replacement guitar pickups which can completely transform an otherwise mediocre low-end guitar into a force to be reckoned with. They have long been the household name for outstanding pickups with renowned users such as Steve Vai, Joe Satriani and Paul Gilbert. The company also produces other high-quality guitar accessories, such as cables, straps and an array of hardware and components.

The DiMarzio DP163 Bluesbucker Humbucker Pickup might look like a standard humbucker and it certainly does the job of cancelling 60-cycle hum as effectively as any regular humbucker. But here’s the twist – it sounds just like a P-90! So now any guitar built with standard size humbuckers can have the sound of P90s without the noise, and without any alterations to your instrument. Dimarzio’s patented Virtual Vintage and Airbucker technology lets the Bluesbucker "see" a narrow string window like a true single-coil, making it extremely sensitive to playing dynamics. And if a noise-free P90 sound isn’t enough, you can split the coil and it will give you an equally noise free Strat pickup sound with very little reduction in output.
