A PAF Master Designed for Demanding Guitarists

The DP261 PAF Master Bridge is DiMarzio's answer to a classic request: to recapture the "vintage PAF" feel while gaining in silence, clarity, and dynamics. Introduced in 2014, this pickup targets guitarists who want an expressive humbucker capable of transitioning from light, articulated playing to a strong, thicker, and meatier attack without becoming muddy. Paired with an Alnico 4 magnet, it offers a natural balance and a very musical response, particularly appreciated in both rhythm and lead playing.

Intended Use and Suitable Guitars

Originally designed for the bridge position, this PAF Master stands out with its controlled output level: present enough to carry a solo, yet open enough to preserve your guitar's character and your right-hand dynamics. Its balanced profile (treble 5, mids 6, bass 5) makes it an excellent choice for rock, blues, pop, and any situation where chord definition is sought. Note: it can also be used in the neck position for a softer register while maintaining clarity. Among associated artists is Paul Gilbert.
