Introducing the DiMarzio The Cruiser Bridge DP187, a truly unique single-coil pickup that's regularly sought after by the modern guitarist for its remarkable sound output. This pickup blends the openness of a single-coil with the thick lows and power of a humbucker, offering the best of both worlds. Its noiseless design ensures that you can play without any 60-cycle hum, while the low magnet pull allows for close string proximity, giving you maximum output.

The DiMarzio Cruiser is also distinguished by its ceramic construction which contributes to its powerful sound. It's a perfect fit for the player who's up for a more modern tone without sacrificing the classic single-coil charm. Its harmonic overtones are exactly where you'd expect them from a true single-coil, and the mid-range is open and vocally sounding. Furthermore, you'll appreciate the added chunk on the bass strings which makes it an excellent pickup to combine with medium-output humbuckers.
