DiMarzio® Super Distortion® Pickup
Standard Spaced – Cream
Timeless High-Output Tone with a Vintage Aesthetic
The DiMarzio Super Distortion is a cornerstone of rock guitar tone, and this cream-finished standard-spaced version pairs its legendary output with a distinctly vintage look.
Instantly recognisable on everything from classic single-cuts to modern superstrats, it delivers the same muscular sound that has powered iconic recordings for decades.
Thick Mids, Singing Sustain
Built to drive amplifiers into natural overdrive, the Super Distortion combines an overwound design with a ceramic magnet to produce bold lows, aggressive mids and smooth, articulate highs.
It’s especially effective in the bridge position, adding weight and clarity to guitars that need more punch while retaining excellent sustain and harmonic response.
This pickup is ideal for:
- Rock, hard rock and metal guitarists
- Players after a classic cream pickup look
- Bridge-position upgrades on humbucker guitars
- Guitars that sound thin or underpowered
- Valve-amp users seeking stronger drive and saturation
