What players and reviewers say
On the DiMarzio True Velvet
“Go for the True Velvet if you want more midrange and a warmer top end than what you have now..”
“I tried the Dimarzio True Velvet neck in another guitar, and while less bright than the Twang King neck, it was still too bright for my liking.”
