Description
The Area T™ Neck brings the same quiet-operation breakthrough DiMarzio built into the Area 58™ and Area 61™ Strat pickups over to Telecaster players. Instead of the usual trade-off between hum cancellation and tone, this pickup manages to stay clear, articulate, and warm while rejecting noise — no small feat for a single coil.
What makes the Area T especially appealing for Tele purists is that DiMarzio’s updated coil geometry let them fit a genuine vintage-style Telecaster cover over the assembly without dulling the top end or robbing output. You get the classic look and the classic snap, minus the 60-cycle buzz that usually comes with old-school single coils.
- Position: Neck
- Magnet: Alnico 2
- DC Resistance: 7.83 kOhm
- Wiring: 4-conductor
- Quick Connect: No
- Introduced: 2007
- Finish: Gold
The Alnico 2 magnet keeps things smooth and touch-sensitive rather than aggressive, which suits the chime-and-chunk character players want from a Tele neck pickup. Four-conductor wiring means you have full flexibility for series, parallel, or split wiring depending on how your control cavity is set up.
If you’ve been chasing that vintage Telecaster voice but can’t stand hum from single coils on stage, the Area T Neck is built specifically to solve that problem without asking you to sacrifice tone for silence.
