A Model Designed for a Modern and Distinctive Sound Identity
The DiMarzio DP242 "PG-13" Neck is aimed at guitarists who want a neck position capable of remaining clear and audible in a mix while maintaining a true personality. Its character emphasizes precision and immediate response, making it an excellent choice when alternating between subtle playing and heavier passages.
For Whom and Which Styles?
This pickup is particularly comfortable if you are looking for a versatile neck position: singing solos, blues-rock licks, tight saturated rhythms, or more open clean tones. Thanks to its output level of 145 mV, it responds well to touch variations and volume adjustments, while retaining enough energy reserve for modern amps and pedals.
Wiring Versatility and Pick Attack Precision
The strong point of this model is its 4-conductor wiring. It allows exploring different configurations depending on your guitar and selector: you can aim for more brightness and snap via a split, thicken the sound in series, or refine the attack in parallel. The ceramic magnet provides a clear response, useful for maintaining definition on chords and a nice note separation, especially with higher gain settings.
