This is really effective for getting open-sounding chords, because high and low strings sound more spread out from each other. Having a total magnet pull that is about 40 percent less than standard single-coils also means The Cruiser can be adjusted much closer to the strings for more power than stock pickups can achieve.

The Cruiser Neck DP186

If you are a serious traditional Strat player, you probably wont want to know about pickups with side-by-side coils. But if you are the player who is up for something more modern with no 60-cycle hum, string drop-outs or sustain-killing magnet pull, DiMarzio designed The Cruiser for you. Harmonic overtones are right where you expect them to be from a true single-coil, and the mid-range is open and vocal-sounding. It is hotter than the traditional single-coil, and the bass strings have a bit more chunk. This is an excellent pickup to combine with medium-output humbuckers, and it maintains its tonal identity with high-gain amps and multiple effects.

 

Recommended for neck position with DP187, or neck and middle with higher output bridge pickup or full-size humbucker.


Tech Talk

The obvious question about The Cruiser is How does it compare to a single-coil sound? Our feeling is that the unwound strings (E, B, and G) are very close, and the wound strings (D, A, and low E) are a little fatter-sounding than a true single-coil. This is really effective for getting open-sounding chords, because high and low strings sound more spread out from each other. Having a total magnet pull that is about 40 percent less than standard single-coils also means The Cruiser can be adjusted much closer to the strings for more power than stock pickups can achieve.
