DiMarzio DP181 Fast Track 1

DiMarzio DP181 Fast Track 1

This pickup comes in white - shown here in back. With hum-canceling side-by-side coils and twin-blade pole pieces, the Fast Track 1™ dishes out solid single-coil tone with some distinct advantages. The blade's magnetic field is continuous from end to end - no more strings misaligned over individual poles. There's also less string - pull, eliminating the out of tune sound caused when magnetic pull messes with the string vibration. Most important is the sound. The Fast Track 1™ has the same open top- end as a single-coil with a tighter- more focussed bass response. Picking dynamics are intact too: Fast Track™s speak with the sensitivity of your favorite single-coil, only about twice as loud. If you use a hot bridge humbucker, try a Fast Track 1™ in the middle and neck positions. The Fast Track 1's enhanced output will better match the bucker's volume for smoother transition from one pickup position to another. You can put a whole set of Fast Track 1™ pickups in a Strat style guitar for louder, tougher tone. Different combinations of Fast Track1TM, Chopper™, and Fast Track 2™, pickups can add guts and drive to any 3x single-coil guitar. The DP381 is the Tele® bridge version. Recommended For: All basic Strat®-type replacement situations. The dual radiused blade polepieces will handle all string-spacing requirements, and the magnetic field creates a very even string-to-string balance. Tech Talk: For any situation where single-coil sound with higher power and hum-cancellation is required. Can be used in any position in a standard Strat setup. Also combines with bridge humbuckers such as PAF®, PAF Pro®, Fred®, Air Classic™, Air Zone™, Norton®, and Tone Zone®.

This is a truly great pickup. I've got them in the neck and middle positions of a mahogany-bodied Ibanez, with an Evo bridge model in the bridge position. Fast Track 1 is ace, I love it. It's ballsy but dynamic, great Strat tone without the hum! Works brilliantly with all kinds of gain levels, so it's versatile too.
