D Activator™
Neck
DP219
In 2006, we took a close look at the most popular active neck and bridge
humbuckers to see if we could capture all of the good qualities and eliminate
the disadvantages: cold sound, limited dynamics, running out of headroom when
played hard, and the need for batteries. The end results are the D Activator™
Neck and Bridge. They use coils tuned to specific frequencies. The purpose is
to shift the resonant points of the pickups to the fundamentals and harmonics
that you want to accentuate from the guitar, and they respond instantly to hard
or light pick attack. The sound is powerful, clean, and open, with excellent
harmonic overtones and very tight lows. The best way to describe the D
Activator™ Neck pickup is that it is big, bright, and open sounding with
surprising string - to - string balance. The D Activator™
Bridge has an enriched harmonic quality and
the notes want to sing.

There’s a big difference between a pickup that sounds bright and
one that sounds thin. A thin-sounding pickup will be brittle on the highest
frets and empty-sounding in the mids and lows. The D Activator™ neck model
doesn’t do this – both the wound and plain strings remain tight and bright up
the neck, and very well balanced. This allows the D Activator™ neck model to
function well in both longer scale bolt-ons and shorter scale, set-neck
guitars. It also makes for a good bridge pickup if you want a sound with a lot
of snap and power. Like all passive pickups, D Activators™ require controls
with a minimum value of 250Kohms. 500K is the standard all around value, and
our 1Megohm tone control is best for long cable runs.
