When You Want It Huge, Pick the Super Distortion!

The DiMarzio Super Distortion is one of DiMarzio's earliest pickups, and it's designed to send your tube amp straight into overdrive, courtesy of its ultra-high output! Guitarists at Sweetwater are impressed with the power and tone that this classic pickup delivers — both single notes and chords are huge, with humbucker-signature thick, boosted mids; fat highs; and killer lows. Generally a bridge-position pickup, but great in the neck with lower-gain guitar amplifiers, the DiMarzio Super Distortion was designed to make the most out of solidbody guitars. Need it fat? Pick up the DiMarzio Super Distortion.

Legendary tone

This pickup never disappoints . Sweet sustain & tone.

Awesome pickup!

The install had me a little concerned, because my original (1985) Hamer pickup had only 2 wires and this pickup has 5. However, after closely reading the installation instructions, I was able to figure it out. This pickup looks and sounds amazing!

I'm very happy with my purchase, and as always, Sweetwater rocks.

Dimarzio DP100

Swapped out a DiMarzio 36 anniversary in the Bridge position on a Epi L.P. 1960 tribute that I have owned for years, for the DiMarzio Super Distortion, because I just wanted "more" and I got it! Great P.U. loving the tone and power. I highly recommend it.
Music background: Just for the fun of it.
