DiMarzio Illuminator 7 Bridge Humbucker Pickup Black

Designed for John Petrucci’s Music Man JP13™
guitar, the new Illuminator 7™ Neck and Bridge Models are the next
generation in John’s signature pickups with DiMarzio. John says he looks
for versatility in his pickups so that he’s able to span a multitude of
different sounds within one guitar, going from massive overdrive, very
tight, rhythmical and aggressive to “more expressive, dynamic and very
liquid” when he plays solos. They’re a bit bold — possessing the clarity
and presence that a 7-string pickup needs, balancing vintage and modern
qualities without sacrificing the best of either. John used the
Illuminator™ and Illuminator 7™ pickups during the recording of Dream
Theater’s self-titled album.

In
keeping with John’s desire to increase the difference between neck and
bridge pickup sounds, the Illuminator 7™ Bridge Model does three things:
it opens up the mids, bumps the highs up a notch, and tightens the
lows. The open midrange allows overdriven sounds to be powerful without
harshness, while the tighter bass response avoids muddy lows.
