What players and reviewers say

On the DiMarzio Bluesbucker

“One was the Bluesbucker, which has more of a single coil midrange with some of the fatter lows and rolled off highs like a humbucker.”

“Because once you plug in and unleash it, this pickup delivers a unique blend of clarity, bite, and vintage soul that cuts through a mix.”
