I should ask DiMarzio if they could send me a set for review. These look interesting!

I've already seen two videos with the Woody guitar and i have to say - i find the sound harsh and quite stiff (well, mahogany is heavy, but those highs...). Vai's sound in the video is very buzzy/fizzy. I don't like it at all, and i can't understand all the praise in the YT comments... [shrugs]
