About this listing
Dimarzio first heard about Paul Gilbert in the 1980s. Billy Sheehan told us about an amazing 18-year-old who had recently arrived in California and had blown everyone away with his musicianship, speed, and awesome technical ability in Racer X. Naturally, we immediately asked Paul to become a DiMarzio® endorser. It was the start of a great relationship.Recently, Paul has been heavily into our Area⢠pickups. Heâs also been playing a lot of Racer X-style instrumentals, so the time was right for signature Paul Gilbert single-coil sized DiMarzio® pickups. The outcome of our teamwork is the new Injector⢠Neck and Bridge Model pickups.Paul loves the results, and you can hear it on his latest CD, Fuzz Universe.
Tech Talk: The Injector⢠Bridge Model is one of our hottest hum-canceling models (185mV output) with six individual Alnico magnets. The sound is not like a vintage single-coil â highs are bright but not glassy, and lows are solid and defined. It was designed to work equally well with rapid single-note arpeggios and power chords without becoming muddy or compressed. It has about 40% less magnet-pull than standard single-coils, and this is essential for the superior speed and dynamic range with which this pickup responds to pick attack.Paulâs setup on the guitar he played on Fuzz Universe was Injector⢠Neck Model in the neck, Area 67⢠in the middle, and Injector⢠Bridge Model in the bridge. The Injector⢠is a lot louder and warmer than the Area 67⢠but the combination produces varied tonal colors in the 2 and 4 positions, with the Area 67⢠alone providing vintage tone and the Injector⢠Neck and Bridge for heavier sounds.
