Spec du LiquiFire - DP 707
One thing has stayed consistent throughout John Petrucci’s long and successful career: the DiMarzio® pickups in his guitars. John has been pushing the envelope of progressive metal since the late eighties, and the DiMarzio® LiquiFire 7™ Neck Model resulted from our most recent collaboration with John. He used it throughout Dream Theater’s tenth studio album, "Black Clouds and Silver Lining".
John swears this is the best live and studio sound he has ever had. He wanted a neck pickup with a flowing, singing solo tone when used with a heavily overdriven amp and a clear chord sound with a clean amp setting.
Recommended For: Neck. Can also be used in bridge position.
Tech Talk: The sound John likes in the neck position of his 6-string translates very well to the 7-string, with fat highs and clean lows for smooth solos and tight bass lines. The LiquiFire 7™ isn’t an exact duplicate of the 6-string version. The attack is a little more focused and the voicing is shifted down about 500Hz to bring out the sound of the seventh string.
spec du Crunch Lab - DP708
One thing has stayed consistent throughout John Petrucci’s long and successful career: the DiMarzio® pickups in his guitars. John has been pushing the envelope of progressive metal since the late eighties, and the new DiMarzio® Crunch Lab 7™ Bridge Model ensued from our most recent collaboration with John. He used it throughout Dream Theater’s tenth studio album, "Black Clouds and Silver Lining".
John swears this is the best live and studio sound he has ever had, and the name says it all - "crunch" is what it’s all about with a big, tight sound that’s neither muddy nor thin.
Recommended For: Bridge
Tech Talk: The Crunch Lab 7™ is noteworthy (bad pun alert!) for what it doesn’t do - it’s not a screamer, and it’s not about thundering lows. Its physical appearance is identical to the D Sonic 7™, but the internal design is a lot different. It’s louder, and the highs have more depth. The lows and mids are more open, and this is crucial for playing chords with body and presence through a gained-out amp. The way the pickup attacks a note is both sharper and stronger, and this allows the Crunch Lab 7™ to be installed with the solid bar towards the neck.
Il semblerait qu'il y ait de la R&D là dessous, mais dans le marketing on peut tout dire. Je n'en sais rien.
Ce que je recherche pour ma 7 cordes est un micro ultra préci. Je pense vraiment au D-Sonic. Je ne pourrais pas supporter un PAF.
En parlant de ça, justement je vends mes DiMarzio monté sur une RG7-620. D'après un tech DiMarzio ils sont analogues au Super Distortion (DP100 et DP104). A vous de juger si vous venez trainer dans mon coin. Ils sont très bon, mais je veux changer de son.
