A Thick-sounding Humbucker That’s Tailor-made for Leads Culled directly from Steve Vai’s signature Ibanez PIA guitar, the DiMarzio UtoPIA bridge humbucker is a well-behaved beast. This pup is a thick-sounding one that’s tailor-made for articulate lead playing. It delivers bold lows, robust highs, and lots of output. Its low-end response is amazing, which adds muscle and body to every note you play, while giving you an extreme level of control. The UtoPIA’s upper mids are dialed back a bit, but don’t think — not for a minute — that there is anything anemic about this humbucking pickup. In fact, at Sweetwater, we’ve found that its mids really snarl when you push it. The UtoPIA includes an attention-grabbing laser-cut baroque-style pickup cover.DiMarzio Steve Vai UtoPIA Bridge Humbucker Features: Culled directly from Steve Vai’s signature Ibanez PIA guitar Exhibits a thick sound that’s tailor-made for articulate lead playing Delivers bold lows, robust
