Description
This is DiMarzio’s classic complementary pairing, built for players who want a neck pickup that sings and a bridge pickup that roars without ever getting shrill. Both are F-spaced humbuckers finished in clean white, and the set includes a set of Ernie Ball EB2223 Super Slinky strings so you’re ready to plug in and go.
The DP193FW Air Norton in the neck spot delivers deep, articulate warmth with none of the mud that plagues lesser neck humbuckers. Its patented Air Norton magnetic structure cuts down on string pull, which means longer sustain and far more control over pick dynamics — and it throws off harmonic overtones that are genuinely rare for a neck pickup. Try it through 500K pots for extra sparkle and top-end presence.
Down at the bridge, the DP155FW Tone Zone brings serious low-end authority without the harsh, buzzy edge that gives some hot pickups a bad reputation. Dig in hard and it pushes back with real power; ease off and it cleans up beautifully. Thanks to its dual-resonance coil design, single notes stay defined and chords sound massive, with more overtone complexity than you’d expect from a pickup this fat. It also splits cleanly for a convincing single-coil voice.
Key specs:
- Air Norton (neck): Alnico 5 magnet, 4-conductor wiring, 270mV output, 12.58K ohms DC resistance
- Tone Zone (bridge): Alnico 5 magnet, 4-conductor wiring, 375mV output, 17.31K ohms DC resistance
- Both pickups F-spaced, finished in white
- Includes Ernie Ball EB2223 Super Slinky strings
A great fit for solid body and semi-hollow guitars looking for medium-output warmth up front and punchy, controlled aggression at the bridge.
