Up for sale is a Brand New DiMarzio DP-419 Area '67 Single Coil Pickup White.

The Monterey Pop Festival of 1967 was a watershed event inAmerican music. When it was over, the world had heard and felt the sound of aStrat® in the hands of a master. Single-coils in 1967 were bright and veryclean. And, of course, they hummed. We've captured the classic bright and cleansound but totally eliminated the hum with our patented Area™ technology. We'vealso reduced magnet pull by 40% for improved sustain and clarity. The Area 67™has the chime of 60s pickups, and the 2 and 4 positions are light, bright andquack-happy.

Recommended For: All positions, especially neck and middle

Tech Talk: Strat® pickups in the late 1960s usedfull-strength Alnico 5 magnets. The patented magnetic field of the Area™ modelsis more efficient and focused than it is on “true” single-coils, which allowsus to use Alnico 2 instead. There's much less magnet pull, but no loss ofoutput. This is a major advantage in the neck and middle positions, wheresustain and intonation can both suffer if the strings are exposed to strongmagnetic fields. In the bridge position, the patented technology of the Area67™ produces a sound that's very bright but not brittle.
