What players and reviewers say

On the DiMarzio The Humbucker From Hell

“I'm totally open to clear, single coil-voiced humbuckers like the Humbucker From Hell, which I agree might be close to what I want in full humbucking mode but probably wouldn't work out if split..”

“It keeps the tighter low-end of the Humbucker from Hell, but has some of that glassy single coil character of the Paf Pro on the top end.”
