The dimarzio area 67, one of the new pickups in the area product line. Completely noiseless, and very bright like a vintage strat pickup would be. I'm reviewing this pickup as a middle position pickup, I have it set that way just like paul gilbert sets his up. And I don't regret it! It's a great spanky little pickup! Though I can't judge too much on it as a middle pickup since there's only a few actual appropriate uses for it. That mainly being for clean tones.
By itself it's crisp, clear and bright. Though not like an ice-pick. It's great and sounds really clear. I wouldn't use it with much gain I was never a fan of distortion sounds on the middle pickup.
Blended with the bridge pickup on clean you get your typical spanky strat tone which is why I wanted the pickup in the first place and it's great at that also! Of course it's completely noiseless and I love it!
Blended with the neck it's also really good and clean and you get your spank with a bit of bass from the neck pickup and it sounds great of course. Lightly overdriven it also sounds real smooth. I said before in a previous review that I'm not a single coil guy, I've been using humbuckers forever and a day and have just recently switched to single coils only because these were promised to be quiet single coil pickups and they are, and they sound GREAT.
to conclude, great middle pickup position. I personally haven't been able to try it as a bridge or as a neck pickup since I have the injectors in the other positions but the combination of them all is great and makes me want to play my guitar more and more! They finally got it right with noiseless single coils, I'd say!
