DiMarzio Area T Neck DP417 The technology that went into the DiMarzio Area 58 and DiMarzio Area 61 has allowed DiMarzio to make a similar advance with Telecaster ® replacement pickups. The Area T neck model has the combination of clarity and warmth that Telecaster® players have always sought, and the new technology allows for a vintage Tele cover to be included with no sacrifice in sound quality or power.

Tech Talk: The contrast between a warm neck pickup tone and a biting bridge pickup sound is a Tele hallmark, but its hard to achieve if the neck pickup is muddy. The Area T neck model has a very smooth tone, but its ability to remain clear even with heavy overdrive is an essential quality of Area design. The Area T was designed to work with 250K controls, but treble response and output can be increased by using 500K volume and tone controls or tweaked further with a 250K volume and the EP1202 1 Megohm tone control.
