DiMarzio Virtual Vintage Solo^TM DP 404

The Virtual Vintage Solo is our high-power lead pickup. The sound is both fatter and more raw than the rest of the Virtual Vintage familymore like a cross between a fat Strat sound and a P-90 soapbar tone. Designed primarily for the bridge position, it's also recommended as a neck pickup for jazz guitarists.

Recommended For:

Bridge position primarily, but can be used in neck & middle

Tech Talk:

This is an excellent pickup for fattening up the Strat bridge position without sounding like a standard humbucker. The Solo has enough power to balance with standard-output pickups in the neck and middle positions, but it will still clean up with an overdriven amp when the volume is rolled down. We strongly recommend a 500K volume control to get maximum performance from the Solo. If it's wired to a tone control as well, try our 1Meg tone (EP1202).
