Take Your Tone to the Stratosphere
Engineered initially as an attitude-packed bridge-position humbucker for high-gain amplifiers, the Air Norton has found favor as one of DiMarzio’s warmest and smoothest-sounding neck-position humbuckers. This pickup packs plenty of power, armed with an output that’s undeniably hot yet controlled enough to excel in applications ranging from gain-soaked progressive metal mayhem to medium-gain blues-rock territory. What sets this pickup apart? In contrast to many high-power neck humbuckers, the Air Norton sports a complex and captivating harmonic edge. Plus, its patented magnetic structure cuts down on string pull — a quality always welcomed by Sweetwater’s lead players, as it enhances sustain and enhances picking dynamics. And while we’ve certainly sung the praises of the Air Norton’s neck pickup potential, this humbucker is an equally fitting choice in the bridge slot for players who prefer a seamless blend of tone, control, and sheer sonic firepower.
