DiMarzio The Cruiser Neck Humbucker Pickup
The DiMarzio The Cruiser Neck humbucker delivers classic single-coil harmonic overtones and an open, vocal midrange without 60-cycle hum or string dropouts. Engineered with side-by-side coils, it produces hotter output than standard single-coils while adding extra punch and body to the lower strings.
Featuring roughly 40 percent less magnet pull than traditional single-coils, this pickup eliminates sustain-killing pull and can be set closer to the strings for higher output. The wound strings provide a fatter response while unwound strings retain clear articulation, yielding expansive chord separation.
Equipped with ceramic magnets and 4-conductor wiring, The Cruiser Neck integrates seamlessly with medium-output bridge humbuckers and maintains its distinct tonal profile through high-gain amplifiers and complex effects chains.
