DiMarzio Area Prewired Tele Kit The Area Tele pickups are among he very best T pickups available in the market. The Area T™ Pre-wired Pickup Set for Tele® includes the Area T™ Neck and Area T™ Bridge pickups, control plate, knobs, and complete wiring harness featuring solderless installation. The Area T™ Bridge does what a great Tele® bridge pickup is supposed to do: the highs sing, the lows snap and the mids have a punch that's almost unreal. It tracks changes in pick attack and volume, and it does so instantly. It's also very sensitive to string distance. The volume is very high when the pickup is close to the strings, but can be adjusted much lower by backing the Area T™ away from the strings. String pull is not a problem with the Alnico 2 magnets that are standard on the Area T™ Bridge. The Area T™ Neck has the combination of clarity and warmth that Tele® players have always sought, and our patented design allows us to utilize a vintage Tele® cover with no sacrifice in sound. The contrast between a warm neck pickup tone and a biting bridge pickup sound is a Tele® hallmark, but it's hard to achieve if the neck pickup is muddy. The Area T™ Neck model has a very smooth tone, but its ability to remain clear even with heavy overdrive is an essential quality of the Area™ design Component List: DIMARZIO CUSTOM TAPER POTENTIOMETERS - 250K SPRAGUE ORANGE DROP CAPACITOR - .022UF, 100VOLT GAVITT VINTAGE HOOKUP WIRE - 22 GAUGE CRL THREE-WAY SWITCH DP418 (Area T) Bridge DP417C (Area T) Neck

DiMarzio HS Prewired Pickguard. If you are looking for that 70's tone, the HS pickups will take you there. These Hum free pickups were made famous by Malmsteen and others, looking for the classic sound of the 70's (think Blackmore i.e.) But any Stratplayer looking for a great fat and distinct sound, will love these. We think the DiMarzio idea of having everything pre assembled, is fantastic. You can easily update your guitar with not only pickups, but also great electronics, as DM make the best pots around, and use quality switches, jacks and wire. It also makes things easy, when building a new guitar. The HS™ Strat® Replacement Pickguard features solderless connectors for easy installation in any guitar with a standard 11-hole pickguard. The pickup configuration is an HS-4™ in the neck and middle positions and an HS-3™ in the bridge. The HS-4™ pickups provide plenty of presence and brilliance, particularly on the high strings, with no 60-cycle hum. The HS-3™ is very similar to the HS-4™, with a symmetrical magnet stagger that helps to produce a sweet overdrive tone and no jagged edges. These qualities combine perfectly with a heavily distorted amp because they don’t get muddy or messy. Great for classical 70's tones. HS-4 The HS-4™ is the vintage magnet-stagger version of the HS-3™. While there is obviously a strong resemblance to the HS-3™, the vintage stagger recreates the string-balance of single-coils from the 50s, producing a unique sound in the neck and middle positions with both chords and single-note soloing. And there’s no 60-cycle hum. HS3 The HS-3™ has been the weapon of choice for Strat®-powered classical metal since the early 1980s. Far from being a high-output monster, the HS-3™ is actually a smooth and relatively quiet pickup that produces a sweet overdrive tone without jagged edges. These qualities combine perfectly with a heavily distorted amp, because the sound won’t get muddy or messy. The HS-3™ is also versatile — it’s a noise-free pickup in a live situation or in the studio.
