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 Satchur8
“Single note runs maintain clarity even with plenty of gain.”
“The PAF Joe delivers a warm and articulate neck tone with plenty of clarity, while the Satchur8 brings a more aggressive bridge voice with additional punch and harmonic presence.”
