Description
The Virtual Solo is DiMarzio’s answer to players who wanted the touch sensitivity of the Virtual Vintage Solo Pro but with more muscle behind it. Rather than splitting the difference, DiMarzio took the strongest traits of both the original Virtual Vintage Solo and its Pro sibling — high output paired with a thick, warm voice — and dialed them up further.
What sets this pickup apart is how it responds to your right hand. Hit the strings hard and the Virtual Solo pushes forward with real bite, sending your amp into breakup with authority and a noticeably sharper pick attack. Ease off and the tone opens up into a cleaner, quieter response — genuine dynamic range that tracks your playing rather than staying static. Compared to its predecessors, expect a smoother top end and a tighter, more controlled low end, all while running dead silent thanks to its humbucking-style single coil design.
Wound with 4-conductor wiring, this gives you full flexibility for coil-tap or series/parallel switching setups if your guitar’s wiring supports it.
- Wiring: 4-Conductor
- Magnet: Alnico 5
- Output: 205 mV
- DC Resistance: 11.17 kOhm
Finished in white, it’s a straightforward upgrade for anyone chasing single-coil sparkle without sacrificing output or fighting hum.
