DiMarzio The Chopper Humbucker Pickup
The DiMarzio The Chopper™ delivers increased output and punch compared to standard single-coil-sized replacements. Designed with power concentrated across the midrange and low end, it provides expansive crunch and dynamic response while eliminating 60-cycle hum.
Featuring side-by-side coils and a twin-blade rail construction, this design prevents misaligned magnetic poles and eliminates excessive string-pull issues. The tonal profile bridges the gap between a single-coil and a full-size humbucker, offering pronounced clarity alongside increased body and sustain.
Equally effective in the bridge or neck position, it seamlessly pairs with other rail pickups or high-output bridge humbuckers. Built with four-conductor wiring and ceramic magnets, it offers versatile wiring configurations for diverse electric guitar setups.
