in humbucker pick-up

Vintage sound in a modern package

Sonically, the DiMarzio Bluesbucker follows in the footsteps of the legendary P-90 single coil, a pickup that is known for its characteristic fat sound and has shaped the sound of various Les Paul and SG models throughout the years. The Bluesbucker allows guitarists to enjoy the P-90 sound with all of the inherent tonal characteristics but without any of the hum or unwanted interference that plagued the original design. As a result, this pickup offers the best of both worlds: A retro sound (despite the use of ceramic magnets) together with a modern level of performance. And because it has the standard humbucker format, it can be installed without needing any modifications to the guitar.

Dynamic humbucker

Unlike an actual P-90 single coil, the DiMarzio DP163 Bluesbucker looks like an ordinary humbucker. However, only the coil with the polepiece screws is "active", while the second coil serves to eliminate unwanted noise. As a result, the pickup precisely captures the dynamics of your playing, emphasising the midrange with a subtle bass presence and a treble response that delivers plenty of detail without sounding too harsh. The Bluesbucker features four-conductor wiring, and its medium output level makes it suitable for many different styles of music - from Blues and Country to Rock and Hard Rock - and it can be used in either the bridge or neck position. The sound can be further modified by flipping the pickup around and thus changing the position of the active coil – though this of course places the screws on the opposite side of the pickup.

For fans of sonic versatility

The DiMarzio DP163 Bluesbucker is ideal for guitarists who find regular single coil pickups too thin and brittle-sounding and perhaps also find conventional humbuckers to be lacking in brightness. Thanks to its design, this pickup is the perfect solution for achieving the legendary P-90 sound on a guitar with humbucker routing without having to compromise in terms of looks. And players who want to get the sound of a typical single coil out of this pickup can split it without losing too much volume, as the second coil does not contribute much to the pickup's output. Those who prefer a more open sound can also install two of these pickups so that they are connected in parallel when the pickup switch is in the middle position.

About DiMarzio

In 1972, Larry DiMarzio created the first ever interchangeable pickup system for electric guitars. He went on to found the company and gave it its name. The New York-based manufacturer has long since become one of the largest suppliers in the field and provides guitarists and bassists with a comprehensive selection of pickups and other accessories. DiMarzio also works intensively with renowned artists such as Steve Vai, John Petrucci, Steve Lukather, Paul Gilbert, Steve Morse and Billy Sheehan, as well as renowned manufacturers such as Ibanez and Music Man.

Perfect for retro mods

Players of Les Paul-style guitars who are looking for a vintage sound without the noise problems associated with the classic P-90 design will find an affordable solution in the DiMarzio DP163 Bluesbucker. Blues guitarists who play clean or slightly crunchy sounds will benefit from the increased dynamic range that this pickup delivers compared to humbucking designs, and Country players who favour humbucker-equipped Telecaster-style guitars can drop in a Bluesbucker in order to achieve a less bassy sound. The Bluesbucker is also a great choice for modding inexpensive Rock guitars, as it allows the player to shape both the tonal quality and the timbre.

Best for a well-defined sound in the neck position

Anoniem 01.10.2015

This pickups works very well for a well-defined and clear sound in the neck position. PAF-type neck humbuckers often have muddy bass, lacking mids and highs that are hard to balance. This pickup fixes those issues. Bass is tight, mids are present and highs are bright, which makes the sound from your neck pickup actually useable aften setting your amp for the bridge pickup. Some say this is voiced like a P90. I don?t really agree, but it does sound great. I have this pickup in a Gibson SG and love it! As with all Dimarzio products the construction is excellent and the price is affordable.

Blues met een grote B

Basz 01.12.2020

Fijne vervanging voor dat net even meer...
Sound: helder met een mooi diep laag zonder dat het blubberig gaat klinken, perfect voor in de neck positie.
Voluit een heerlijke sustain, wat gas terug en je hoort in de verte stratachtige Frusciante soundjes.

Top voor blues, funk en sorry dat ik vloek in de kerk JAZZ...;-)

Great tones, cross between P90 and Humbucker

Anoniem 14.10.2016

This pickup has nice clarity and definition for a neck pickup, and is a great replacement in case you find your current neck HB to be too muddy/bassy.

However, the effect was not as big as the description led to believe; this is not a 'humbucking P90', just a more defined and punchy neck HB. It does not have the upper mid focus and grit that a real P90 has, which I think is the pay-off for being hum-cancelling.

Still highly recommended. Build quility is great, and installation was a breeze thanks to the included instructions.

Humbucker with sinclecoil qualities for dynamic playing

julius__ 20.04.2020

I bought this pickup for my old Tom Delonge Squier Strat that came with an SD Invader in bridge postion (and only that). In the last 16 years the music I play changed profoundly and the high gain pickup didn't do it anymore, instead I needed something that support a more dynamic playing, something with more brilliance and where you can always hear the single strings. So the idea was basically to create a Strat Junior, similar to what you get in SG or LP format.
Since I don't own a guitar with a P90, I can't tell how well the Bluesbucker imitates one but I can state that my guitar feels so much more alive with it. Warm sounding when played softly but cutting through when I put some effort in it. It never get muddy, even when the amp starts to distort you still can hear single notes.
I can recommend this pickup for everyone who feels their humbuckers are too flat or they need something more in the direction of a singlecoil.

The pickup comes with screws, springs and instructions, the wiring is excellent, as is the waxing.

Packaging arrived in a timely fashion, even in these challenging times, thanks to the Thomann team!
