DiMarzio Evo 2
Hot, tight and aggressive, with forward mids.
Hotter than 67% of the 280 bridge humbuckers we have
- Ceramic magnet: the strongest pull: tight lows and a sharp attack
- More mids than a typical DiMarzio
“The Evo 2 is a bit more mid-rangy and the PAF Pro (on the neck) cleans up the mud a bit better.”
