DiMarzio DP-145BK Will Power Neck Bass Pickup, Black

The original DiMarzio Model P and Model One bass pickups have been significantly enhanced to meet the high - power needs of legendary guitarist Billy Sheehan and his diverse playing style. The result is the amazing Will Power neck model. Compared to the Model One, it offers extremely deep - sounding lows, along with greater volume and thickness. The pole piece spacing is slightly increased, which is ideal for long - scale bass string alignment. It provides great punch, mid - range power, and maximum high - end response. The overall sound is similar to the Model P, but the broader magnetic field gives individual notes and harmonic overtones more impact. For a brighter and cleaner sound, switch the coils from series to parallel. Although the volume drops a bit, the midrange becomes more open and has an acoustic quality.

Using this DiMarzio DP - 145BK Will Power Neck Bass Pickup is straightforward. Just install it on your long - scale bass following the standard pickup installation process. When you play, you'll notice its great sound right away. For a change in tone, you can switch the coils from series to parallel. Remember, when you do this, the volume will go down a bit, but you'll get a brighter and cleaner midrange. As for maintenance, keep the pickup clean. You can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe it occasionally. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures and humidity, as this can affect its performance. If you have any problems or need further adjustments, it's best to consult a professional bass technician.
