Surprisingly great pickup
V_Korneev 09.05.2018
I knew these pickups have decently high output and low noise levels. I knew these pickups have clear and detailed sound with no ?mumbly lows? or ?sandy highs?. Yet, I didn?t really expect anything more than ?loud and tight? from a relatively cheap minirail with a ceramic magnet.

Well, I was wrong. This thing is great with overdrive, very good with distortion, and in single coil mode it preserves that classic ?Telecaster-ish? singlecoil tone. Nice little monster with very wide area of applications.

DiMarzio DP384BK
Lukas762 16.05.2014
The DiMarzio DP384BK is a Humbucker in Singlecoil size.
I put this Chopper T in my old Fender Telecaster, because i wanted a warmer tone that can handle higher Gain stages better than a singlecoil.

Sound:
The DiMarzio DP384BK is not a high output pickup.
It has the same output as my Standard neck pickup, so they work great together.
It is actually more telecaster twang in the tone now, what i like. both pickups together sound very clear and sweet, that´s how i love it!
The DiMarzio DP384BK for itsself is not an agressive pickup. It sound great in crunch modes and it sounds always very precise and clear.


The DiMarzio DP384BK also offers the chance to be splitted, to get singlecoils tones out of it, but i think thats not necessary because it always sounds a bit like a singlecoil. Maybe the output is too low a few people. Its not a metal pickup, but its perfect for blues, country, rock and hardrock (maybe with a booster in front)

Great replacement for a telecaster
M1ch43l 12.03.2018
I replaced the stock pickup in one of my esquires with this dimarzio. Wired it to give single coil in 1st position, dual coil in parallel in the second position for a p90 like tone and humbucker mode in the 3th position. This is now one my most versalite guitars, and it only has 1 pickup

I dont like it
Haik5 31.08.2021
I dont like it - I first installed a dimarzio pick up on my neck position and i absolutely loved it, so decided to get this chopper t for the bridge, but really a major disappointment- it cuts out all the high end... you get more mids (duh it's a humbucker) but still... i have humbuckers on my gibson that give me more treble and high end than this one... i am really thinking of changing it...
