What players and reviewers say
On the DiMarzio D Sonic
“But, I just traded the D-Sonic (too thick and dark for me) in for a Steve's Special (hopefully a bit brighter and articulate)...”
“I wouldn't put the D Sonic in a baswood body cause basswood has tons of midrange and low end so your sound might turn to mud..”
On the DiMarzio Gravity Storm
“If you are looking for high mid crunch forget the Gravity Storm, I have that set in one of my guitars and it is a lot of lows and low mids with a rolled back high end.”
“However, to say the gravity storm will have scooped mids because it has an A5 is a stretch, as the Tone Zone example proves.”
