This DP217 BK is a no-brainer if you’re chasing that Yngwie Malmsteen bite – think blistering fast runs and screaming harmonics. It’s essentially an HS3 reimagined with vintage-style magnets, giving it a touch more warmth and sustain while retaining that aggressive edge. Perfect for shredders and players who want a high-output, focused bridge pickup.
Product Description
DiMarzio DP217 BK, Yngwie J.Malmsteen Signature Pickup, Sound like the HS3 pickup but with vintage magnets, Colour: Black
- • Delivers the searing high-output of an HS3 with a warmer, more vintage tone.
- • Alnico II Pro magnets provide a smoother, more articulate response than ceramic magnets.
- • Excellent for neoclassical shredding and soaring lead lines, just like Yngwie’s signature sound.
- • Well-built with a robust nickel-silver baseplate for reduced microphonic noise and stability.
- • High output may be overwhelming for players seeking a subtle, nuanced tone.
- • Limited versatility; excels in high-gain scenarios, less ideal for clean tones.
- • Black plastic cover can appear visually less premium than some other pickup options.
