A staple of the Evolution series, Steve Vai signature
The DiMarzio Evolution Middle (model ISCV2 ) is the middle pickup of the famous Evolution setup associated with Steve Vai. Designed to fit naturally between a stronger neck and bridge pickup, it provides just the right amount of presence and bite in the middle position while maintaining clear articulation on fast passages.For which guitarists and styles
This electric guitar pickup is aimed at musicians seeking an incisive single coil that remains clear with gain, effects, and modern amp settings. It excels in rock, hard rock, shred, and fusion genres, especially when using the intermediate selector positions for sharp, percussive, and dynamic tones.Precise response and attack that stands out in the mix
With its Alnico V magnet, the Evolution Middle emphasizes a fast attack and expressive mids, helping the guitar cut through a dense mix. Its 160 mV output level and 12.54 kOhm resistance give it a strong character for a middle pickup, ideal for precise riffs, snappy harmonics, and sculpted leads. The 2-wire wiring allows for simple and reliable integration in most setups.Technical specifications
