DiMarzio DP255 BK Transition Bridge BLK

I bought the Transition pickup as I wanted something a little more versatile and 'expressive' than the usual high output bridge pickups I go for, to go in my Alder bodied Jackson. I wanted a pickup that did a whole range of tones, that in particular would have a good clean sound, particularly in coil-split mode. I chose the Transition because it's specifically has a lower output than most of DiMarzio's high-output range (it's one of DiMarzio's High Output pickups, but at the lower end of the scale). For the record I'm not particularly a fan of Steve Lukather, so he didn't influence my purchase. The fact that DiMarzio seem to be very competitively priced compared to a lot of pickup makers these days didn't hurt. You can pay half as much again for some other brands out there.

This pickup I feel does just what I need. It has growl and bite when I want it (when playing both rhythm and lead work), but cleans up fantastically too.

On distorted tones it has presence, clarity and depth as well as noticeable string definition. I can't imagine not getting a sound I wanted (with the right amp) from this pickup.

When clean it doesn't sound too bright or shrill (I've had some pickups where the bridge pickup's clean sound will cut you in half), yet the notes are clear and articulate, not muddy.

Looks-wise, DiMarzio's finish is always great, no scratches out of the box (and I've had some new pickups before from other manufacturers that HAVE been scratched) but I was a bit unsure about the look of the vintage style slug/screw polepieces. I tend to like the double Hex bolt look which DiMarzio do on a lot of their humbuckers, but I think the polepiece type/metal is supposed to make a difference to the sound, so that's the important thing and I have no complaints there!

dieser Pickup ist etwas für Gitarristen die den Ton in den Fingern haben und nicht diverse Utensilien benötigen und einen guten Ton zu erzeugen -wie der Meister sagt Organic
Der Einbau leicht gut beschrieben und ohne Probleme - der Output nicht higain jedoch etwas mehr als normal -der Ton definiert klar auch im higain Bereich definiert und man kann die einzelnen gespielten Noten immer klar hören
Für Gitarristen die das Flageolett Spiel beherrschen werden hier ihre Freude haben, denn ist die Basis sprich Holz gut lassen sich alle Flageoletttöne hervorragend abrufen
ein Wahnsinnstonabnehmer nicht nur für Lukather Fans

Monté sur une PRS SE Custom 24 à la place du micro d'origine, pas assez expressif, ce micro relève le son de la guitare comme les épices relèvent une sauce. Il est excellent en clair crunch et saturé. Avec un côté chantant qui vous ravit les oreilles et stimule la créativité en solo.
Bon respect des basses et claquant des aigus.
Pas mauvais non plus en split Coil .
Intéressant en association avec le DP254.
