Product Description

zZounds is an
authorized DiMarzio dealer

As soon as DiMarzio introduced the first Virtual Vintage(TM) pickups for Strat(TM) guitars, DiMarzio began receiving numerous requests for neck and bridge replacement models for Telecaster(TM) guitars. They feel the Virtual T pickups compare brilliantly to the best old Tele(TM) pickups. The neck model Virtual T overcomes the complaint many Tele(TM) players have about muffled sound in the neck position. It's very sweet sounding, but not muddy, even when the tone control is rolled down. The bridge pickup combines some of their favorite qualities from different Tele(TM) and Broadcaster(TM) models: clean, snappy low strings, warm high strings, superior string separation, and balanced response. Both models have Alnico 2 magnets for maximum sustain and pure tone, and they were designed to work with the original 250K control value.

Recommended for bridge position.

Tech Talk
Many Tele(TM) bridge pickups have all 6 magnets pressed level with the top surface of the coil. However, the basic Virtual Vintage(TM) design is very sensitive to differences in magnet height, so DiMarzio built in a magnet stagger that offers balanced string response for most guitars with standard (plain G) strings. Flat magnet stagger is available on request. Like all Virtual Vintage(TM) models utilizing Alnico 2 magnets, the Virtual T was designed to work with 250K controls. The tone is very balanced and equally useful for blues or country picking. Maximum twang can be obtained by using 500K controls, and the balance can be fine-tuned even further with a 250K volume and the EP1202 1Megohm tone control. zZounds is an authorized dealer of DiMarzio products.

Read 1 DiMarzio DP412 Virtual Tele Bridge Single-Coil Pickup Review

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "The Telecaster Legend continues"

Sound: This sound IS the Tele. Versatile, definitive and powerful pickup that made the Tele famous and continues to drive the guitar. It is much better than the stock pickups that came on the Affinity Squire Tele we use. Feature: Pickups don't have too many adjustable features, but, you can play with the Pots and ohms to get more or less performance, depending on the way your stick floats. This baby is very adaptable and somewhat forgiving. Ease of Use: Hey, all Teles are a snap work on, compared to other guitars. Quality: All Good! Value: Sixty bux at this writing, and that's probably the fair market value. Might hunt about and snag a bargin, but who wants to waste playing time? Manufacturer Support: Never needed any, but, I 'spose Fender would be there for this pickup if warranty required it. The Wow Factor: Legendary design says power and raw masculine sex appeal, for you now just like your grandfather in his time, playing Leo Fender's new solid body guitar - the Caster series.

Style of Music: Rock, Country, Jazz, Southern Gospel
