Title: Tremonti Treble (bridge) + DiMarzio Pro Track (Neck) ?
Post by: Alter on May 12, 2018, 11:29:45 AM
Hello guys,

Wanna hear your thoughts about this configuration

Tremonti Treble on the bridge +
DiMarzio Pro Track as a single coil sized humbucker on the neck.

I'm hesitating between this and the DiMarzios Air Norton S and BC 1 on the neck.

I play instrumental rock and I go from clean to metal to crunch, so I'm searching for versatility.

Did anyone tested these ?

What are your thoughts ?

Thanks in advance guys

The Pro Track would probably be your most versatile option. The Air Norton S and BC-1 are great but lean more on the darker side.

The Tremonti bridge is supposedly based on the 500T, so that might be a good reference starting point.

Thanks for your return guys

What do you mean by "darker side" ?


What about the output guys ? Is it "balanced" between the two ?

I don't have a big experience on pickup changes, so I prefer to ask.

Thanks guys !

By darker I'm referring to a rounder, less trebly sound with less presence. It's not a bad thing, some people like to have very different sounding neck pickup to contrast their bridge pickup, others don't like that much of a drastic difference.

I wouldn't worry too much about the output. They'll all balance well with your bridge pickup.
