DiMarzio Releases PAF 57 Neck & Bridge Pickups
DiMarzio has been on the cutting edge of pickup design and has been a game changer for over 50 years. We pride ourselves on our originality, innovation, and the constant pursuit of excellence.
The PAF® 57 uses a 2½-inch Alnico 2 magnet as the energy source, setting the stage for sonic brilliance. Using computer-controlled winders, we scatter-wind the 42 AWG enamel wire, adding dimension to the meticulously matched coils and enriching the guitar’s voice and dynamics while adding depth without compromise.
Fear not: these pickups are wax-potted, vanquishing any whisper of microphonic feedback. All the pole pieces and studs are nickel plated, while a maple spacer ensures perfect coil alignment between the bobbins.
PAF® 57 pickups paint an auditory masterpiece — creamy tones, flawless hum cancellation, and a crystalline top end. The PAF® 57 has the perfect output for use with high gain amplifiers.
Choose your vibe with black, relic white, or cream butyrate bobbins, or traditional nickel covers. The PAF® 57 Neck and Bridge models deliver open dynamics, a bright attack, smooth midrange, and a resounding bottom end.
DiMarzio doesn’t answer to a board of directors. We answer to a higher power: musicians.
