DiMarzio Tone Zone S and Area 61 pickups in my Line 6 Variax Standard
“It’s high-output, sure, but not in a “blow out your amp” kind of way – more like a tight, controlled punch.”
“Coil-splitting or parallel wiring can sweeten things up further – great for glassy cleans or funky mids without swapping guitars.”
