Description
News
Like a Chopper on vitamins, the Fast Track 2 is a pedal-to-the-floor, side-by-side, twin-blade monster. It's got 3 times the output of an average single-coil, with a huge mid-range punch. The Fast Track 2 is a bridge-position-only pickup with a powerful crunch and grind designed right in. It's particularly useful when you need a tightly focused jolt of power to crank your amplifier into rich overdrive.
Mix the Fast Track 2 with Fast Track 1 and Chopper pickup for an extremely hot, tight sound from any guitar with 3 single-coil pickups. The DP182T is the Tele(TM) version of the same pickup. Recommended For: Bridge position for all Strat-style guitars. The dual-blade polepieces can handle all string-spacing options.
Tech Talk
To get some sense of the Fast Track 2, it's best to think of it as a Strat(TM)-sized version of the Super Distortion(TM) or Super 3, the 2 pickups it most closely resembles. Using a 500K volume control will open up the top end, and we recommend this value. The best neck and middle pickup combinations with the 2 would be relatively hot models like the Fast Track 1 and Chopper. You can also mix it with Strat(TM)ier models like the Virtual Vintage line, if you're prepared for the jump in power of the bridge position.

DiMarzio Fast Track 2 Humbucker Pickup Reviews

DiMarzio Fast Track 2 Customer Review
Sound:
Execellant pickup for any type of music, especially hard rock. I found it to have a tighter sound than the large hunbuckers, but with the same punch. Great artificial harmonics, great with distortion.
