What players and reviewers say
On the DiMarzio Fast Track 2
“Fast Track 2 would be another big, thick, smooth option with output to match.”
“Also, Fast Track 2 has that midrange hump of Fred, but is just a tad hotter.”
On the DiMarzio The Tone Zone S
“I prefer the FS2 for its midrange and clarity, but I also like the Tone Zone S more for the bridge and the Pro Track for the middle and neck to be honest.”
Comparing with DiMarzio Pro Track
“For me, Tone Zone S is too muddy, boomy, bass-heavy.”
