When I got this guitar, it had the factory Alnico V pickups that were put in the new Player series guitars, but they were a bit noisy - especially with overdrives. So I swapped them out and decided to upload a video demoing the Dimarzio Area 58s (neck and middle) and Area 61 (bridge). I'm just noodling around here, so there are a few mishaps. Nonetheless, it should give you viewers a feel for how the Dimarzios sound. I'm playing my Fender Player Stratocaster FSR model through the Helix LT. Overall, I think the sound is pretty awesome; check it out for yourself.
