DiMarzio DP100 Super Distortion Pickup
This is the pickup that started it all. Many of the classic Rock guitar sounds of the '70s and '80s were produced by a Super Distortion and a raging tube amp. But don't confuse classic with outdated. Diverse artists from Al DiMeola, Frank Gambale and Vinnie Moore to Metal veterans Iron Maiden and Ace Frehley have chosen the Super Distortion as an integral part of their personal sound.

This is the pickup right here! I put it in my 1989 Squier and man it sounded great. It sounded so old school. I was so amazed. It sounds like it should be worth 300 dollars. The overall value was great so go buy it!!!!!!!!!

This pickup is immaculate. If you're a beginner this pickup will make your major scale riffs and pawn shop guitar sound like you're Angus Young. If you know your music and own a Gibson or Strat(or whatever) this pickup will give your music the tonal edge you probably missing. Dimarzio did it right with this one.

This pickup is perfect if you want a really thick tone. I put it in the bridge position of my jagmaster and it really screams. The harmonics sound amazing. You won't be disappointed.

This pickup is ONE of the greatest sounding pickups I've ever heard. I plugged an Ibanez iceman into a crate practice amp and it sounded awful, but I picked up an Ase Frehley Les Paul and plugged it in. I've never heard a Crate amp that sounded so good. This pickup will drive any amp over the deep end. Don't wait. Order now before it's too late. This is an awesome Metal pickup. I give it a 20 out of 10
