FRED® has about the same power as the PAF Pro®, but the unusual overtones create a sound with more crank and growl. Joe Satriani was the first player to discover and exploit these qualities, and it's been his main bridge pickup until the introduction of the Mo' Joe™. FRED® is really sensitive to changes in pick attack and control settings, and its distinctive tone makes a great recorded sound for both penetrating solos and tight rhythm tracks.

Recommended for: Neck and bridge positions in all solidbody, hollow and semi-hollowbody guitars.
Quick Connect: No
Wiring: 4 Conductor

Q & A
There are currently no questions for this product.
Had experience with many Dimarzios over the years like Air Norton, Super Distortion, Tone Zone, PAF Pro and Evolution. Fred is the best of all for the bridge. I have had one in a 1990 JS Series since I bought it. Swapped out pickups a few times but the Fred is just the right amount of gain, not too trebly and the right amount of mids. Has less noise too when high gain is used. Well recommended.
