DiMarzio Pre B-1 Bridge Pickup

The DiMarzio Pre B-1 Bridge Pickup is engineered for blues and rock guitarists seeking increased low-end punch and reduced high-end snap without sacrificing traditional Telecaster character. Designed to deliver a broader sonic profile, it cuts through dense mixes while filling out the overall soundstage.
Featuring approximately 25% more output than a standard stock Tele bridge pickup, this model pushes tube amplifiers into richer overdrive with enhanced sustain. It addresses common tonal imbalance issues across various tonewoods and hardware setups by fattening the treble frequencies and boosting the midrange and low end.
Built with Alnico 5 magnets and 2-conductor wiring, the design omits the traditional metal baseplate for optimized frequency response. It drops directly into standard Telecaster bridge positions for a straightforward, high-impact sonic upgrade.
