DP809 Ionizer 8-String Neck Humbucker Pickup Black. The Ionizer 8 Neck, Middle
& Bridge Model pickups were designed for Tosin Abasi. Tosin is pushing the
envelope with 8-string guitars. He needs lots of sounds, and he wants pickups
that can make them all. It's taken us nearly two years to develop the pickup
Tosin envisioned. It's warm and open like a vintage humbucker, solid and tight
like a modern metal pickup, and performs like a classic single-coil in split
mode. Recommended for neck position. Can also be used in bridge position. Tech
Talk It's unusual for a player to request a humbucker with the single-coil
sound as important as the series humbucking sound, but Tosin was clear on this
point. The split mode has lower resistance than a vintage Strat 6-string
pickup to let the 7th & 8th strings stay clean, but all of the other specs
nail the classic Strat sound.
