DiMarzio Area T
Hot, warm and smooth, with scooped mids.
Hotter than 81% of the 79 neck Tele pickups we have · estimated from resistance
- Alnico 2 magnet: the softest pull: warm, round and forgiving
- Fewer mids than a typical DiMarzio
“The Area T is has a very flat EQ whereas the Jazz is kinda scooped sounding, very full bass, bright treble.”
