DP158FW

EvolutionxAE Neck DP158FW, F-spaced.

The EvolutionxAE Neck and Bridge humbuckers are the result of two years of research to come up with the right sound for a very demanding player: Steve Vai and his IbanezxAE Jems. Both pickups are designed for maximum impact and power. The neck pickup is fat, punchy and loud. The bridge pickup is tight, aggressive and louder. Both pickups have our patented dual-resonance configuration to reproduce more harmonic overtones than conventional humbuckers. EvolutionxAE pickups are not polite-sounding, and they’re not for the inexperienced, but - if you’ve got the chops and a hot amp - your sound will burn. The EvolutionxAE pickups were originally designed with live gigs in mind, but they have so much presence and definition that they’re great recording pickups, too; they slice right through even the densest mix.

Recommended For The EvolutionxAE neck model will work in almost all solid-bodies and most semi-hollow bodies as well.
Tech Talk

Obviously, the EvolutionxAE was designed for Steve's IbanezxAE Jems, but it can add a lot of punch and definition to GibsonxAE Les PaulsxAE and similar set-neck guitars - even the lowest bass notes really jump out of the amp, and feedback occurs easily with a wide range of harmonic overtones.
