Humbucker Shootout: Lollar Pickups - Imperial vs. Imperial Low Wind
What players and reviewers say
On the DiMarzio FRED
“The low end stays tight and controlled, never spilling over into mud.”
“Light picking produces a clean and articulate response, while digging in brings out aggression and bite.”
On the Lollar Imperial Low Wind
“I purchased a PRS Singlecut Trem used that had the Imperial low winds in it. Initially, I was a little disappointed that the original pickups weren't included, but am completely sold on the Lollars. They excel in every area, from ultra clean to gritty.”
