The DiMarzio Area Model Prewired Pickguard is for electric guitars with standard 11-hole pickguards. It's got an Area '58 pickup in the neck, Area '67 in the middle position, and an Area '61 at the bridge.

Area '58
The Area '58 offers excellent treble response and dynamics with little magnetic pull and virtually no hum.

Area '67
In the middle position, the Area '67 pushes sounds like the single-coil pickups of the late '60s—bright and very clean. The Area '67 totally eliminates hum and offers reduced magnet pull for improved sustain and clarity.

Area '61
Finally, the Area '61 in the bridge position brings a steely, yet woody sound to the table. As with the other two pickups, the Area '61 eliminates hum and features reduced magnet pull. These 3 guitar pickups combine to create unique, undeniably vintage tone.

Call or click today and infuse your Strat with vintage tone.

Clean w/ good harmonics

Got mine on discount from MF (thank you "Scratch & Dent") The tones are very "Fendery", except that they are noisless! (does that make them not Fendery at all?) They aren't as edgy as stock '67's, but they have a nice rounded sparkle to them that sounds great clean or overdriven - it dirtys up real nice! I'm also finding some nice harmonics here and there as I play with it. I am very happy with mine. Overall I recommend this product, especially as it is essentially a drop in. Prewired is good!

A Silent Strat...at last
Posted by Lloyd from Atlanta on Sep 1, 2009

I purchased this product to replace the Texas Specials that were stock in my Strat. They sounded good, but were too beefy...not enough sparkle. The biggest problem was the noise. I dropped this pre-wired Area Pickguard into the guitar, plugged it up, turned on the amp...and I started to search for what was wrong...the amp wasn't coming on...so I thought. I kid you not, I brushed the strings and beautiful sound poured forth. I was so used to single coil hum as soon as the amp came on, that I thought there was a problem! They are that quiet. However, the best treat was the tone. Rich, Fendery tones, nice sparkle, and no sacrifice in sound quality to get the quiet. In fact my Strat sounds more authentic now. These pickups are GREAT!
