Description
The Bluesbucker exists to solve a very specific problem: you want that fat, biting P90 character, but you’re not about to start cutting up your guitar or living with 60-cycle hum to get it. DiMarzio’s answer is a standard-size humbucker that thinks it’s a single-coil.
- Fits any guitar routed for a regular humbucker — no modification required
- Fully hum-canceling, so you keep the quiet operation of a humbucker
- Uses DiMarzio’s patented Virtual Vintage and Airbucker technology to narrow the pickup’s string-sensing window
- Finish: black
The trick is in how it “sees” the strings. Rather than reading them the way a typical wide-aperture humbucker does, the Airbucker construction narrows that window down to mimic a true single-coil’s focus. The result is a pickup that responds to pick attack and dynamics the way P90 fans expect — snappy, vocal, a little raw at the edges — while staying dead quiet under gain and fluorescent lights alike.
Good candidate for players who love P90 attitude but built a guitar (or bought one) with humbucker routing, and don’t want to compromise on noise floor to get there. Drops straight into existing wiring and cavities with no extra work.
