“Steve Blucher and DiMarzio are the only pickup designers who are truly pushing the envelope when it comes to creating pickups that marry the vintage tones people desire with modern advancements like the Virtual Vintage^® series of single coils with no-noise. The bridge Air Classic™ humbucker is hands down my favorite humbucking pickup with a huge open sound and just the right amount of output, and the Virtual Vintage^® pickups really deliver whether you're looking for bell-like chime or a half-distorted, throaty lead sound. All that tone and no-noise to boot ... I love these things! They are in all my Strats!”
