All DiMarzio full-size humbuckers are available with both standard and F-spaced pole pieces. F-spacing is slightly greater, and should be used for the bridge position on almost all guitars with tremolo bridges or wide string-spacing. Guitars with a nut width of 1-11/16″ (43 mm) or greater should use F-spaced pickups in the neck position as well.

Norton®

DP160

The sound of a Norton® is right between FRED® and The Tone Zone®. It’s got some FRED®-like harmonic overtones that can only be described as nasty, with more of the power and mid-range of the heavyweight Tone Zone®. The same patented dual-resonance design used in FRED® and The Tone Zone® delivers a sound that’s hotter and “bigger” than any vintage model, but not as loud as a distortion-class humbucker. Norton® might be our most versatile bridge pickup. Combine it with a wide choice of neck pickups like theAir Classic™PAF® 36th AnniversaryPAF Pro®, and Air Norton™.

Recommended For

Bridge position in all solid body guitars. Can also be used in neck position with higher output humbuckers.

Tech Talk

Norton® was originally designed to extend the tonal range and power of standard output humbuckers without going over the top. Its more modern than a PAF® sound: the benchmark Gibson® Les Paul®/Marshall combination yields more midrange crunch and high frequency pick harmonics than vintage-style pickups were capable of putting out. Norton® is really good for opening up the sound of mahogany set-neck guitars.
