The BreedTM Bridge Model DP166 & F


If you've seen Steve Vai perform in the last few years, you may have seen him playing a Jem guitar with the word Pogo taped on the face. Steve wanted one of his instruments to have a fat, classic humbucker sound to contrast with the hotter, screaming Evolution-equipped guitars. This is the bridge pickup we developed for him.

Recommended For:

Bridge position for solidbody guitars.

Tech Talk:

The Breed was designed to warm up and smooth out the sound of 25 1/2 scale trem guitars. It's got a lot more power than a PAF®, but it also has a finer touch' than high-output models. Picking hard will generate a lot of voltage, but a softer attack will clean up the sound of an overdriven amp.

Specifications:

Wiring Standard four conductor
Magnet Alnico 5
Output 356mV
DC Resistance 17.07K
Year of introduction 1997
Patent # 4,501,185
