This DP202BK is a fantastic bridge pickup if you're after that Al Di Meola vibe – think precise, articulate shredding with a touch of vintage warmth. It's a real workhorse for players who want a defined, clear tone that cuts through the mix without being overly aggressive. Perfect for fusion, progressive rock, and anyone who appreciates a refined high-output humbucker.
Product Description
DiMarzio DP202BK, Pickup "Al Di Meola"
If you can play as fast as Al Di Meola, you need a pickup that can handle it at all and convey nuances in the playing even at the highest speed. Therefore, Al didn't want an overly hot pickup in the bridge position, so his humbucker corresponds to a PAF with a little more treble and bass, which makes the sound clearer and more differentiated.
