One thing
has stayed consistent throughout John Petrucci???????s long and successful
career: the DiMarzio???? pickups in his guitars. John has been pushing the
envelope of progressive metal since the late eighties, and the new
DiMarzio???? Crunch Lab 7?????? Bridge Model ensued from our most recent
collaboration with John. He used it throughout Dream Theater???????s tenth
studio album, ???????Black Clouds & Silver Linings??????µ. John swears this is
the best live and studio sound he has ever had, and the name says it all
?????? ???????crunch??????µ is what it???????s all about with a big, tight sound that???????s
neither muddy nor thin.

Bridge position
Tech Talk
The Crunch Lab 7?????? is noteworthy (bad pun alert) for what it doesn???????t
do ?????? it???????s not a screamer, and it???????s not about thundering lows. Its
physical appearance is identical to the D Sonic 7??????, but the internal
design is a lot different. It???????s louder, and the highs have more depth.
The lows and mids are more open, and this is crucial for playing chords
with body and presence through a gained-out amp. The way the pickup
attacks a note is both sharper and stronger, and this allows the Crunch
Lab 7?????? to be installed with the solid bar towards the neck.

One thing
has stayed consistent throughout John Petrucci???????s long and successful
career: the DiMarzio???? pickups in his guitars. John has been pushing the
envelope of progressive metal since the late eighties, and the DiMarzio????
LiquiFire 7?????? Neck Model resulted from our most recent collaboration
with John. He used it throughout Dream Theater???????s tenth studio album,
???????Black Clouds & Silver Linings??????µ. John swears this is the best live
and studio sound he has ever had. He wanted a neck pickup with a
flowing, singing solo tone when used with a heavily overdriven amp and a
clear chord sound with a clean amp setting.

Neck position. Can also be used in bridge position
Tech Talk
The sound John likes in the neck position of his 6-string
translates very well to the 7-string, with fat highs and clean lows for
smooth solos and tight bass lines. The LiquiFire 7?????? isn???????t an exact
duplicate of the 6-string version. The attack is a little more focused
and the voicing is shifted down about 500Hz to bring out the sound of
the seventh string.
