DiMarzio DP-212BK EJ Custom Bridge Humbucker Guitar Pickup, F-Spaced, Black

DiMarzio crafted this EJ Custom pickup in response to Eric Johnson's unique request. It mimics the sound of an old Gretsch Country Gentlemen guitar. You can use it to replace standard full - size humbuckers without losing sonic complexity. The sound is bright and lively, with a strong and steady presence, never sounding too thin. It might seem like a Stratocaster pickup at first, but this humbucker is distinct. It sounds amazing with heavy distortion and on lower frequencies, free from muddiness. The EJ Custom has excellent treble response, more than vintage - style humbuckers, similar to single - coils but with a smoother texture. In the bridge position, it's great for chords and finger - picking, and offers outstanding clarity for solos even under extreme distortion. This model features F - spacing.

To use this DiMarzio EJ Custom F - Spaced Black Bridge Humbucker Guitar Pickup, first make sure your guitar is suitable for F - spaced pickups. Install it in the bridge position of your guitar as you would with other humbuckers. When you play, you'll notice its bright and clear sound. For chords and finger - picking, it gives a rich and defined tone. When soloing, even if you turn up the distortion, it maintains clarity. As for maintenance, keep it clean. You can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe it down occasionally. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures and humidity, as this can affect its performance. If you need to remove it for any reason, be gentle to prevent damage to the wires and the pickup itself.
