Gearank High Notes
- 2017.11: Equal Highest Rated Bridge Humbucker Size Pickup
Tied With:- DiMarzio DP100 (Standard Spaced)
Gearank Recommendation
The DP100 (F-spaced) appeared on our recommended list for Budget Guitar Pickups in 3 consecutive editions from the first one from November 2017 until November 2021.
Overview
The DiMarzio DP100 Super Distortion (F-spaced) was one of the first aftermarket pickups launched, arguably paving the way for all of the pickups that came after.
It was also one of the first aftermarket high-output pickups available, which led to its widespread adoption among rock and metal guitarists.
Even today it still has a relatively high output, so it’s still a great choice if you’re looking for great hard rock and metal tones.
This is for the f-spaced version and is suited for installation in Fender-spaced (hence the name) bridges. This includes Floyd Rose and other floating bridges. The standard spaced DP100 is for the narrower Gibson spacing.
