Single-coil Tone, Humbucker Performance
DiMarzio's HS-4 was originally created for Yngwie Malmsteen — an avid collector of vintage Strats, especially those from the '50s and '60s — as a vintage-style magnet-stagger replacement Strat pickup. The HS-4's stacked design yields a tone that's very much like that of a vintage Strat pickup with more shine and brilliance on the top end — with no 60-cycle hum that plagues most single-coil pickups. Because it works well in both the neck and middle position you'll want to grab two from Sweetwater today.
DiMarzio is the choice of the pros
DiMarzio guitar pickups give you the tone and output you need to get the most out of your guitar. Dozens of guitar legends have used DiMarzio pickups in their prized instruments, from Joe Satriani and Steve Vai to David Gilmour and Eric Johnson, Jerry Garcia to John Petrucci — the list goes on and on. Ever since the introduction of the Super Distortion humbucker in the early 1970s, players have relied on DiMarzio for a range of replacement pickups that suit their needs best.
