What players and reviewers say

On the DiMarzio Satch Track

“I'd go with Satch track for the neck rail choice over the chopper, little less bass & smidge more clarity but very close tonally.”

“Meanwhile, the neck pickup is expected to handle everything from glassy cleans to singing lead tones without turning into a muddy mess.”

On the Seymour Duncan Li'l Screamin' Demon (SLSD-1)

“I'd go with the Lil Screamin Demon as it will still be fat/thick enough for the styles you listed, but it'll mix with your neck and mid pickups better than the JB Jr.”
