This pickup has the full, ballsy sound that I'm looking for in a lead position pickup, and has just the right amount of "scream" to it when you push it with overdrive/distortion. No wonder so many top players endorse it!

The DiMarzio Super Distortion is a great pickup, I installed one in my Gibson Les Paul Classic and it's easy to see why so many famous players have them in their guitars, they are great for pretty much any rock music... rock oriented blues, classic rock, hard rock, heavy metal, 80's metal, etc...

Just finished installing this pick-up. This is the pick-up that was used in Def Leppard's song Photograph. With a high-gain British Marshall, a bit of reverb and slight echo you can get that kick-ass 80's rock tone easily. Responsive and feedback's easily, not micro-feedback but string feedback an octave higher than the fretted note, although typical for most high output pickups. This one has awesome sensitivity. It's a very interactive pickup. Love it... If you like 80's top 40 shred.

One of the best pickups of all time. Covers a diverse palette of tonal territory. Very touch-sensitive. In today’s age where there are a gazillion pickups to choose from, the Super D still stands out as iconic.

This is a pickup I've known about for decades but never had the chance to use personally. Very impressed, great high gain tone without losing clarity of individual notes. Absolutely recommend it!

I've got USA Wolfgangs, Peavey USA Custom Shop Wolfgangs, USA Frankenstein, Seymour Duncan Custom Shop "'78" and Mexican Wolfgangs. The Super Distortion paired with the Liquifire Neck, my new favorite!

the sound suited my MIM fender strat! I like it a little bit more than the Tone zone it was before.
