DiMarzio DP421 BK Area Hot T

What would a Tele bridge pickup sound like if it had the same EQ as a vintage PAF? If you’re a Tele player and you think this is an interesting question, DiMarzio has the answer: it’s the Area Hot T Bridge. Because it has the classic Tele 6-magnet configuration, it’s not simply a PAF reduced to Tele size. The sound is more detailed and controlled. The plain strings both sing and sting, and the wound strings have a dynamic quality that’s halfway between a humbucker and a P90. The Area Hot T Bridge uses Alnico 2 magnets like other Area models, and works well with either 250K or 500K controls.
