Description
This DP151BK/DP155BK set covers both ends of the tonal spectrum without asking you to compromise on clarity. The PAF Pro (DP151) in the neck was built for the era when high-gain rigs and rack processing started taking over stages, so it delivers an open, vintage PAF-style voice that stays articulate through heavy effects instead of dissolving into mush. Expect snappy, chunky lows, a mid-range spike that hints at a half-cocked wah, and highs that cut without turning brittle. It’s flexible enough to work in the bridge too when you don’t need maximum output.
- Wiring: 4-conductor
- Magnet: Alnico 5
- Output: 300 mV
- DC Resistance: 8.4 kOhm
- Introduced: 1986
In the bridge, the Tone Zone (DP155) brings serious low-end and low-mid weight without the thin, buzzy edge some hot pickups suffer from. Its patented dual-resonance coils keep overtones alive even at high output, so single notes retain depth and chords sound full rather than compressed. Dynamics respond well to picking hand touch — dig in for power, back off for cleaner, quieter tones. Split-coil wiring also opens up a usable single-coil voice.
- Wiring: 4-conductor
- Magnet: Alnico 5
- Output: 375 mV
- DC Resistance: 17.31 kOhm
Both pickups arrive in black, and this bundle includes a free set of D’Addario EXL120 Super Light strings so you can get your guitar strung and gigging as soon as the install is done.
