Dimarzio PAF and Super Distortion Review
November 172009
A review of a Dimarzio PAF and a Dimarzio Super Distortion.
Sorry I’m not actually in the picture, I just can’t stand it when people stand (or sit) in front of the amp because it affects the sound.
Equipment (as stated in video):
-Gibson Les Paul w/ Dimarzio PAF (neck) and Dimarzio Super Distortion (Bridge)
-Marshall TSL 60W Head
-Marshall 1960A Cab
-Boss NS-2 Noise Suppressor
I have other videos that were recorded with an SM57 for better quality that’s more true to the actual sound. Check ‘em out.
Duration : 0:2:53

Rockfield pickups. …
Rockfield pickups. Cheap, but very good for price. Their SWC set is the best. Sort of a JB model/Gibson ‘57 classic sound to them. Callum

I’m not 100% sure …
I’m not 100% sure because I live in the states, but I’m pretty sure that Dimarzio and Seymour Duncan pickups fall in that range unless there’s some cost tacked on that I don’t know about.

No, they’re …
No, they’re different. The PAF that I have is almost exactly the same as the PAF 36th Anniversary Neck model though.

That PAF is the PAF …
That PAF is the PAF 36th Anniversary?. Great sound.

It’ll definitely give you a great warm tone.

do you think a air norton and a super distortion would make a good couple?

Haha, nice.
Haha, nice.

A great combo and a great guitar.
Guaranteed to sound great, hopefully it’s the sound that you’re looking for.

Im thinkin’ about buying the $500 Parker Fly and dropping a Paf/FRED combo in it.. opinions?
November 17th, 2009 at 9:31 am
I’d be willing to …
I’d be willing to bet that it would be a kickass sound that would match very well with single-coils.

They’re both …
They’re both humbuckers :p
November 17th, 2009 at 9:31 am

Anyone try a paf pro in a Strat?
November 17th, 2009 at 9:31 am

the humbucker from is a bit warmer than the PAF, though I like both

The tone has so much growl because I recorded on a camera, haha.
Check out my other videos for studio quality.
I recorded those clips with my sm57 and my Boss recorder.

Who let the dogs out? lol. Did you just drop the Super Distortion in or did you wired it in parrell or something?
November 17th, 2009 at 9:31 am
Some of the Randall …
Some of the Randall solid state amps aren’t bad, and the Marshall ones get the job done also.
November 17th, 2009 at 9:31 am
shit good solid …
good solid state amps? as far as half stacks go, that line 6 spyder one or however it is spelled is pretty good.
Other then that, I’m too high-gain and loud to get a solid state amp that really makes me happy anymore.
I use a laney 100 watt tube amp from the 80s, with 100 watt speakers…. high gain!
November 17th, 2009 at 9:31 am
thanks man, any …
thanks man, any good solid state amps? in malaysia, its hard to get good stuff, cant really go to a shop and test the gear, they expect u to order it and buy it..

80s shredding, you …
80s shredding, you could do tone zone in both positions like Akira Takasaki from Loudness!
Or a PAF/PAF Pro neck and super distortion/Tone zone in the bridge….
I got a seymour duncan 59′ in my neck, and a tone zone in the bridge and it kicks ass.
and another guitar I just got is going to be a PAF Pro + Super Distortion, because it also kicks
Pretty much anything Dimarzio related will do what you want provided your amp has the balls for it.
