DiMarzio Area '61 Single Coil Pickup White

Up for sale is a Brand New DiMarzio Area '61 Single Coil Pickup White.

DiMarzio® has been working on serious vintage single-coildesign with no hum for twelve years. Our goal has always been to capture thebest qualities of pickups we heard from the 1950s and early 60s. We’ve playedseveral pickups from the early 60s that had a unique tonality: they weresteely, yet woody-sounding. Naturally, we wanted to nail this sound, and wewanted to do it with no hum and less magnet-pull. The Area 61™ does it. It’sgood in all three positions. It’s the perfect bridge pickup with a pair of Area58™ pickups if you want to go all the way from Nashville to Texas in oneguitar.

Recommended For: All positions.

Tech Talk: Over the last 10 years we’ve gotten literallyhundreds of requests from guitarists asking for the Texas blues sound. Thissound is centered on single-coils from the early 1960s, but it’s also based onheavy strings and strong hands. We can’t change your strings or your hands, butthe Area 61™ captures the tonal bedrock this sound is based on. Like the Area58™, the Area 61™ really responds to different pick attacks: played hard, itsounds louder and tougher than you’d expect from a vintage pickup, but it cleansup immediately by picking softer or rolling down the volume control. And likethe Area 58™, its ability to cancel hum is superior to full-size humbuckers.
