DiMarzio® Area 61™ Pickup, Cream
Vintage ’60s Tone with Modern Noise Reduction
The DiMarzio Area 61™ pickup captures the bright, dynamic character of early 1960s Strat® single-coils, enhanced with advanced hum-cancelling technology.
It delivers crisp highs, tight bass, and excellent articulation, making it ideal for players seeking authentic vintage tone without unwanted noise.
Crisp, Articulate and Responsive
The Area 61™ is voiced to replicate the lively, responsive feel of vintage single-coils, with slightly more bite and presence than earlier ’50s designs. Its low end remains tight and controlled, while the midrange stays open and clear.
