The Tone Zone S™ DP189
The Tone Zone S™ brings the performance of the famous Tone Zone® to a humbucking Strat® replacement-size pickup. We’ve built in the tremendous mid-range and bass response of the original Tone Zone®, and the same patented dual-resonance design produces great harmonics. It has four-conductor wiring for parallel humbucking and split-coil modes, and makes a great bridge position combination with the Pro Track™, Chopper™ and Fast Track 1™.
Recommended For:
Bridge position, solid body guitars. Neck position when a very warm jazz guitar sound is required.
Tech Talk:
If you compare the specs of the full-size Tone Zone® with those of the Tone Zone S™, you will notice they don’t match. That ‘s because the trick in building a single-coil size pickup to sound like its big brother is to go for the sound rather than the numbers. We also took into account the likelihood that the Tone Zone S™ will be installed in the classic slanted Strat® bridge position, so we warmed up the higher frequencies and brightened the low notes a little to compensate.
