DiMarzioForum Pickups FAQ
« on: August 12, 2008, 03:27:05 PM »
Since there are a LOT of repeat questions here that have been answered, I thought I'd post a bit of an FAQ.

-F Spaced?
F-Spaced was created because the saddles of Gibson's bridges don't match up with those of Strat bridges (different scale lengths, etc). At the time, DiMarzio created this "tremolo" spacing, and Floyd Roses were popular at the time, resulting in the name "F-Spaced." However, some Gibsons from the 1990's still need F-Spaced pickups because of the string spacing. As a rule of thumb, buy an F-Spaced pickup for your bridge slot if your bridge's string spacing is 2.1" (53mm) or larger, and an F-Spaced pickup for your neck slot if your nut width is 1 11/16" (43mm) or greater. You can also slant a regular spaced humbucker in order for it to match up with F-Spaced size bridges. All DiMarzio single coil pickups are already F-Spaced.

-Custom Colors?
DiMarzio gives you the option of having colored bobbin tops (see DiMarzio's website for available colors), as well as a variety of chrome, gold, or black polepieces on pickups (silver or black for bar coils, and all single coil rail pickups have black rails). Standard bobbin colors are double cream, double black, or zebra (outside coil black, inside coil cream) and standard polepiece colors vary from pickup to pickup (e.g. silver for PAF Joe, black for PAF Pro, etc.; see below for details). The upcharge for custom bobbin colors is ususally ~$5, and the upcharge for custom polepieces is $10.

The following are considered "standard" pickup bobbin colors from DiMarzio and are available for order at no extra charge:
Double Cream
Double Black
Zebra (One coil black, one coil cream)

ALL Pickups come with chrome polepieces as standard with the exception of the following:
DP102 - X2N (Black)
DP151 - PAF Pro (Black)
DP152 - Super 3 (Black)
DP158 - Evolution Neck (Black)
DP159 - Evolution Bridge (Black)
DP200 - Steve Morse Model Bridge (Black)
DP205 - Steve Morse Model Neck (Black)
DP215 - Evo 2 (Black)
DP221 - D Activator-X Neck (Black)
DP222 - D Activator-X Bridge (Black)
DP705 - X2N 7 (Black)


-Custom Ordering Options?
As stated above, you can order custom bobbin colors for an upcharge of ~$5 for most non-standard pickup colors (with the exception of camoflage and chrome bobins, which are both and upcharge of $50) as well as custom polepiece colors for an upcharge of $10. You can also order single coil stratocaster pickups without the triangular flange on the bottom (similar to EMG pickups) for no extra charge, and non-stagger the polepieces in pickups that would otherwise have staggered polepieces for an upcharge of $45.

-Airbuckers?
Airbuckers are humbuckers that have a gap of air between the pickup's magnet and polepieces. This weakens the magnetic field of the pickup, allowing greater string sustain and a slightly more vintage voicing.

LuredMaul has posted a very nice thread regarding the airbucker mod and how to perform it, found here: http://www.dimarzioforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=1697.msg13440#msg13440

-Virtual Vintage?
On pickups that have Virtual Vintage technology, DiMarzio adds some material between polepieces, usually headless screws. This is not visible on humbuckers as they are covered by the bobbins, but if you remove the cover of a single coil they are visible. Virtual Vintage technology essentially smooths out the highs and tightens up the lows, which can smooth out a pickup without letting it get muddy. In tech terms, VV technology increases inductance without affecting resistance or capacitance.

More info here, courtesy of our admin, budd: http://www.dimarzioforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=420.0

-Dual Resonance?
Dual Resonance technology is when DiMarzio tunes the two coils of a humbucker to different frequencies, allowing harmonics to jump out a little more and bringing out a lot of interesting overtones, depending on the pickup. A lot of unconventionally-sounding humbuckers (Humbucker From Hell, FRED, Evolution, etc.) have this technology, providing for a kick-ass pickup. Though, that's not to say that other "conventional" humbuckers don't have it (Tone Zone, for example).

-How do I know what technologies are in my pickups?
Go to DiMarzio's website, look up the pickup, and the pickup will have a specified Patent Number(s, if necessary). There are some exceptions, like the Mo' Joe has Virtual Vintage technology and Dual Resonance, although DiMarzio only has the patent for Dual Resonance on their site.

Quote from: Schneidas
Here are the various DiMarzio patent numbers:

-Dual Resonance: 4,501,185
-Airbucker: 5,399,802
-Virtual Vintage: 5,908,998
-Stack design (e.g. HS-3): 4,442,749

there are also 2 other patent numbers that I'm not sure about:

-5,908,802 - found on the Virtual Solo & Virtual '54 Pro - could be either a mistake on the DiMarzio site (maybe they meant the VV technology - 5,908,998), or they used someone else's patent on that pickup (if you look it up, it shows that it's a patent issued by some other company)

-5,811,710 - found on the VV Solo, Solo Pro, Blues - I guess it's again the stack design in slight variation

-Pickup Output?
This is a common misconception. Many people believe that high-output pickups can't clean up, and that low-output pickups can't handle distortion. All that output really means is how easily a pickup can drive an amp into full overdrive or distortion. That's not to say, though, that an EJ Custom or Air Classic can't be used for thrash metal, or that an X2N can't be played clean. It just means that they'll be better suited for their respective jobs. Remember: Overdrive and Distortion come from either an amplifier's preamp or an effects chain, not the pickup itself.
All that really matters is that your bridge pickup should have equal or higher output than your neck pickup, because the neck pickup slot is closer to the antinode of the string, which vibrates more freely and is hence louder. In order to balance out your pickup set, put a pickup of the same or higher output in the bridge than is in the neck. You also need the middle pickup in three-pickup arrangements to have equal or less output than the neck pickup, as to why I honestly don't know.

Output is measured as such:

In case anyone else is interested in measuring output of Dimarzio pickups, here's the specifics (from a Dimarzio tech via email)

we measure the RMV voltage from
the pickup into a 20K ohm load 333 ms after the initial voltage peak
using only the A string with all other strings muted.

-What's the output of pickup ____ ?
Our admin, buddroyce, has so kindly provided us with this chart: http://www.dimarzioforum.com/output.html

Pickup Height?
Recently, there have been issues with the rout size of certain guitars (namely, the RG 1570 from 2008ish) and the height of certain DiMarzios. Supposedly, the pickup rout is too shallow to accompany the height of most ceramic magnet pickups, causing the strings to lay on the pickup. Here is a chart as to which pickups have which height dimensions:

I will also add to this, as well as edit, as time goes along. If there's anything you feel that I forgot, or screwed up/got wrong, please feel free to post it or PM me, and I'll edit the post and throw it in.

I know we have an output chart...but dimarzio list all the tonal charts on their site too...that would be an awesome list to have. Or even an app, if anyone has the opportunity.

You mean EQ? We might be able to do that...

Thanks for putting together this FAQ. I've stickied it for everyones benefit

Here's the output chart (I finally moved it over to this site after testing it on my shop site @ brlguitars.com site) :)
http://www.dimarzioforum.com/pickup_compare/compare.php

I actually have an EQ one on the works that'll hopefully come soon. Actually, it's the same app just with more functionality added.

Thanks DocNrock.

And more edits, @ Budd: I'm going to edit the entire post regarding the new output chart. And I'm looking forward to that EQ chart!

Plus, I've added some pickups to the pickup list that weren't there. Interestingly enough, none of the new pickups for 2008 were on the list. I had to add the PAF Bridge, True Velvet series, and Virtual Solo, I think that's it.

When I have more time I'll peruse DiMarzio's website, and other resources, to double check that I have all of the pickups.
