Dimarzio DP193FCR Air Norton Humbucker F-Spaced (Cream w/ Nickel Poles)

DiMarzio's Air Classic™ humbucker represents a breakthrough in pickup design, combining vintage tonal character with modern reliability through innovative Airbucker™ technology. Rather than simply copying late 1950s humbuckers with traditional Alnico 2 or “aged” Alnico 5 magnets, DiMarzio developed this advanced approach to capture the best sonic qualities of classic humbuckers whilst addressing their inherent technical limitations.

The Air Classic™ maintains that coveted sweet sound of vintage humbuckers, but Airbucker™ technology allows DiMarzio to utilise a more dependable full-strength Alnico 5 magnet. This innovation reduces string-pull significantly, which increases both sustain and sensitivity – crucial factors for professional performance and recording applications.

What sets this pickup apart is its almost vocal, three-dimensional sound that responds immediately to your playing technique and maintains clarity throughout the sustain. The enhanced touch sensitivity and control gives players unprecedented ability to shape their individual sound, making the Air Classic™ an excellent choice for guitarists seeking vintage character with modern performance standards.
