Dimarzio Injectors - new Paul Gilbert Sig pickups

[Bloody_Inferno]

Borrowed from rockstarazuri's Ibanez 2011 post:

I'm one of the few here that just love the tones of single coil pickups, so for me this is awesome news.

Very curious to try these out.

Is it me or does Paul Gilbert just seem like one of those cool guys you'd want to hang out with and have a few beers while shooting the shit?

 

[geofreesun]

i remember in some video he was saying he loved those single coils from an ibanez gio series guitar and asked ibanez to put some of those in his rg570 or something

Im more excited that he said they are mass producing the Fireman

I'm not normally into Strat/single coil bridge pickups, but I'm digging this

Thanks for the post.

Single coils rock, I love them, but my only singles are soapbars atm (nothing wrong with that though). Single coils really keep you on your game, they are much less forgiving than humbuckers. And yes, I shred on my ASAT special (or what I can do that passes as shred).

THESE are going in the middle and neck positions when I make my strat HSS.

this guy rocks!!!! period!!

the pickups sound good but the player is awful......................needs lessons

I wonder why he doesn`t use a neck version in the middle spot instead of the "area"?

ah...sarcasm, how I'd missed that.

He has an Area 67 in the middle because its a great position for it. Its a bit more trebly and lower output which works great for funky chording and for adding the "quack" to the notch positions.

Sorry if your question wasn't serious either, but figured an explanation could be useful regardless

Actually I can take or leave the guitar but the pickups are of great interest - I wonder if I can snag a cheap squire strat to jam some into?

(Jaden Rose has already made a 6er with these in, wonder how that sounds by way of comparison?)
