DiMarzio DP196 Virtual PAF Neck Position Humbucker (Black)
In the past there were no high-gain amps, no home recording studios, no computer monitors. Single-coil pickups were okay, and so were unpotted humbuckers. Who knew? Times have changed, but the clean, bright-yet-warm tone of the best vintage pickups still sets the standard for electric guitar sound. The Virtual PAF™ captures the finest qualities of 50's and early 60's humbuckers to create a great sound. Patented Airbucker™ and Virtual Vintage¬ technology permit the use of an Alnico 5 magnet to generate the same low string-pull that an Alnico 2 or 3 produces, and combine 2 of the most sought-after tonal characteristics: low note clarity and high note warmth. The neck model has a pure, bell-tone chime and the bridge model has a thicker, woody sound. The Virtual PAF™ comes with 4-conductor cable for all coil-access combinations. Recommended for all positions. Tech Talk An obvious question is the differences between the Virtual PAF™ and models like the PAF¬ and Air Classic. The Virtual Vintage¬ technology in the Virtual PAF™ adds a subtle, 3-dimensional presence to the overall tonality. It's particularly noticeable in the tonal balance between high and low notes: the high E string doesn't get brittle-sounding on the high frets, and the low E string doesn't "mud out" on the lowest frets. This characteristic makes the Virtual PAF™ neck model equally effective in both neck and bridge positions where sonic clarity is most important.
