Description
This DiMarzio set solves the classic humbucker mismatch problem: a neck pickup that’s too polite paired with a bridge pickup that’s all buzzsaw and no nuance. Here you get the DP193BC Air Norton in the neck and DP155BC Tone Zone in the bridge, both finished in black and creme, plus a free set of D’Addario NYXL1046 regular light strings to get you playing immediately.
The Air Norton (DP193BC) was designed as the neck-position answer to the Norton, and it overdelivers. Expect deep, warm tone that never turns to mud, plenty of output without breaking into distortion, and harmonic content that’s genuinely rare for a neck humbucker. Its patented magnetic structure cuts string pull for longer sustain and lets your pick attack come through with real expressiveness. Run it with 500K pots for extra treble bite and harmonic sparkle.
The Tone Zone (DP155BC) is the fix for thin, buzzy bridge tone. It’s a high-output pickup with real dynamic range — dig in and it roars, back off and it cleans up nicely. Bass and low-mid response is huge, single notes carry depth, and chords sound massive rather than mushy. Patented dual-resonance coils pull out more overtones than you’d expect from something this fat, and it splits to a convincing single-coil voice when coil-tapped.
Together they’re a proven combo for solid body and semi-hollow guitars — warm and articulate up top, powerful and controlled down low.
