Air Norton 7™ DP793



As 7-string guitars have continued to grow in popularity, playing styles have expanded and sonic demands have increased. The 6-string version of the Air Norton has proven to be a an effective, versatile pickup for many applications in both neck and bridge positions, and the Air Norton 7 extends the same qualities to 7-string guitars. In the neck position, the sound is both warm and well-defined - equally useful with clean or overdriven amps. In the bridge position, the sound is very solid and harmonically rich. In overdrive mode, it has a very distinctive voice that has both vintage and modern qualities.

Recommended For:

Solidbody and semihollowbody guitars.

Tech Talk:

In the neck position, the Air Norton 7™ is a warm, open-sounding pickup with enough power to balance with higher-output bridge pickups like the Tone Zone 7™, Blaze Custom and Evolution 7™. In the bridge position, the sound is medium output with solid lows and biting harmonics. It matches up well with the PAF 7™ or Blaze neck model in the neck position. Due to the use of Virtual Vintage technology in the coil construction, split and parallel modes are also very effective; the sound is very vintage single-coil, without a severe volume drop.
