DiMarzio DP151 PAF Pro®: High Presence, Open-Sounding Pickup that Cuts Through Heavy Processing

The DiMarzio PAF Pro® (DP151) was conceived during a key period when chops-intensive playing styles were emerging and high-gain amplifiers and rack systems were gaining widespread popularity. At this time, there was a pressing need for a pickup that could successfully combine a significant amount of presence and “cut” with the open, airy, and classic vibe of the original PAF® pickups. The PAF Pro® was specifically engineered to meet this challenge. A defining characteristic is the transparency of its sound, which allows the pickup to effortlessly slice through heavy effects processing—a scenario where darker-sounding pickups often get lost in the “mud” of the effects chain. Low notes delivered by the PAF Pro® possess both snap and chunk, providing definition and weight. Furthermore, there is a specific spike in the mid-range that imparts a subtle “aw” vowel sound to the tone, reminiscent of a wah-wah pedal stopped at its mid-point. The treble response is precisely tweaked to ensure the high frequencies stand out brightly without ever becoming brittle or harsh. The versatility of the PAF Pro® makes it an outstanding neck pickup in virtually any guitar, and it also excels as an exceptional bridge pickup choice when ultra-high output is not the primary requirement for the player.
