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.”
On the DiMarzio Steve Morse Model
“It works great in the Steve Morse model guitar or in an ax pushing a Mesa Rectofier as it doesn't get muddy and is very punchy through an amp with a lot of lows like the Mesa.”
“Yes, it's dark ish, I had treble at 3 o'clock, but it DOES sound like Steve Morse, that's his tone.”
