DiMarzio D Activator-X Neck Pickup

The DiMarzio D Activator-X Neck Model combines high-output aggression with remarkable clarity and dynamic response. Featuring the iconic dual-blade look of the classic X2N, this pickup incorporates coils tuned to distinct frequencies to deliver a punchy, articulate voice that cuts through dense mixes while cleaning up effortlessly when the volume is rolled back.
Engineered with a focused attack centered on the upper-mid frequencies, this neck model utilizes calibrated ceramic magnets with reduced string pull. This design preserves natural sustain and intonation while ensuring seamless output balance when paired with high-output bridge pickups.
Equipped with 4-conductor wiring for versatile coil-splitting and parallel configurations, the D Activator-X Neck features universal string spacing suitable for both standard and F-spaced electric guitars across heavy rock and high-gain styles.
