DiMarzio has been working on a serious vintage single-coil design with no hum for eight years. DiMarzio's goal has always been to capture the best qualities of pickups heard from the 1950s and early 1960s. They played several pickups from the early 1960s that had a unique tonality: they were steely, yet woody sounding. Naturally they wanted to nail this sound and they wanted to do it with no hum and less magnet pull.
This is it. It's good in all three positions and it's a perfect bridge pickup with a pair of Area '58s if you want to go all the way from Nashville to Texas in one guitar.
