EXACTLY what I came looking for...11 years late 🤗 Thank You for all the clean tones..so rare!...!! Best Regards/Wishes!
dude i love your playing.. can tell you're into mayer and timmons.. I'm a big fan of both but mostly timmons.. lovely feel and sound and you've managed to capture it!
''The John Mayer tone''?You mean the Andy Timmons tone,because he was sounding like that,when Mayer was still in elementary school. ;-)
Yeah yeah! I know :-) But a lot of younger guys (including myself) discovered all these folks at the same time :-D
THANK! YOU! What disgrace lol
You are absolutely right ✅
I went with them and my band was blown away by how great it sounded. I highly recommend these to anyone looking for a good tone that straddles the line between rock/hard rock (and the clean is great too)!
Funny because i was looking for a neck pickup for my MusicMan Silhouette Special HSS. And this video suits me perfectly.
Fantastic Demo... all types of sounds, clean mid and dirty, very good
since you been gone baby!!!! loved hearing that!!!
Holy shit - a demo that is actually useful for a change. Thank you.
You just sold me those pickups, absolutely fantastic mate.
Great Demo ! Silhouette, my dream guitar...
Definitely a subscription !
A really nice and reliable demonstration.
Thank you Sir ! I just discovered a very nice humbucker ! Impressive great playing skills !
great demo and excellent playing!
Excellent demo. I'm getting a set next week!!!
Glad you liked the video!. I'll ask Mike to post details of his delay pedal.
Sweet tones
I just ordered a cruiser for the neck position.
Thanks for the vid
good job dude! a very nice overview
of sounds! Cheers
In positions 2&4 do the AT-1 and cruiser split?
I have a Music Man Silouette Special and just put the AT1 pickup and just want to now what is the specificacion for the cruiser in the neck? Ypu have wired like a Humbucker or single coil?
excellent demo, well done!
@cbosmooth
The john mayer song is
"Slow dancing in a burning room." :)
What pots are used in the guitar ?
The Silhouette Special has 250k pots as standard and aren't what Dimarzio recommend for the AT-1 and Cruiser.
Treble bleed? Which condensor and resistence did you use?
What was the middle pickup?
And what difference would it make if I put a neck cruiser in the neck position?
I play a lot of blues, but that Cruiser Bridge in the neck position sounds so good, I'm considering swapping out a '57 classic in one of my Strats for one, and may look around to see if I can locate a MM custom middle position, as well, as they sound great in your review above... being a strat, I need a single coil profile pickup in the bridge position though... would you have any recommendations as to what pickup you might put in the bridge position of a strat with this combination...?
probably a dumb question but what john mayer song is that at 1:07 ish?
do you use 250k or 500k pots?
can some 1 please tell me how the cruiser would sound in the middle because i am REALLY close to buying these pickups for the middle position for my guitar but i have not yet heard how the pickups sound in middle position.
Hey, I trying to find strat pickups which have a reasonably similar single coil sound to stock fender Alnico V pickups, but also perform well while distorted. I was looking at the Dimarzio cruiser and the Fast Track 1, though I'm not sure whether the Cruiser will be able to handle high gain stuff, like some Van Halen or Metallica. Will it? Thanks.
thinking of putting a AT1 in my esp viper(mahogany) at the bridge, what do you guys think?
Did you wire this yourself? Do you know if the AT1 and the Cruizer are being split in positions 2 and 4? Just curious how to wire this with a Fender 5 way switch since the Cruizer is actually a humbucker as well.
Do you have the neck pickup wired in series or parallel?
Great demo! :) soooo... Is the cruiser oriented towards the neck or towards the bridge?
What’s the pot value for the Bridge Humbucker ?
Can you share the wiring you've used?
What's the name of this music man silouette with this pickup ??
The middle pickup is a custom wound Dimarzio that comes with the Musicman. With regards to putting a neck cruiser in the neck position, Andy Timmons puts a bridge cruiser in this position as it gives him more clarity and top end. I think if you went with a neck pickup it would give you a more mellow sound basically.
I'm sure it would sound great it's just down to personal taste and your style of playing I guess. If your more of a blues player a neck cruiser might be the way forward.
Where can I buy a pickguard like that?
Great vid, this is the exact pup I have been looking at for my strat. Your using the DP187 in the neck, correct?
Hello! Nice review thank u so much! I have a question, do you have 0.10 strings in the video? What gauge do you use? I have 0.11 and I don't want to sound to much fat with the AT1 pickup. I saw the EQ in the Dimarzio web and it says that this pickup has Bass 9.0 and Low Mid 8.0, do you think that could be a problem with 011-049 strings? Hugs
What a great demo! I was on the fence about what pickup to buy, but not anymore.
One question, that's going to be a brighter guitar. If I have something a bit heavier and darker, is there any downside to the pickup configuration you're using? My guitar is a Hamer Californian with a humbucker in the bridge and a single coil in the neck.
Whats the Name of the Song at 5:38?
whats the name of the song in 4:14?
Neck sound is really awesome!
Very good demo. Thank you very much
great pickups. how much they cost you ?
Nice video amazing pickups what tremolo were you using?
what amp are you using?? let me know thanks!
Actually not trying to start a fight, but has anyone tried out the AT-1 vs JB? Looking to replace the Diamondhead humbucker that come with guitar. I play through JVM205 and or Fender Super Reverb.
Where can I get a pickguard like that!!???
Hey mate, like everyone else, fantastic review and really informative. Better than 99% of reviews out there by a country mile. Could I ask how come you didn't replace the mid as well? If I went with a mid/neck set, would it still give me the 'nice, thick tone' you talk about in the review, without hum? I'm really aiming for a notchy traditional inbetween sound without the hum. Thanks in advance.
What delay pedal are you using bro? Great video btw
im definitely gonna get that CRUISER BRIDGE!
Oh, isn't that the pedal that Andy uses? And please make a video review of it, I think I'm buying this delay pedal..thanks
Mike plays a Blackstar Artisan 30. A fantastic amp!
that's it I'm getting the AT 1. it's really articulate and ballsy.
I don't think I ever heard A.T. use the "John Mayer" tone.
That cruiser sounds awesome... Gr8vid
i have a strat SSS and planning to put the Cruiser both on neck & middle but i'm wondering the alternative for the AT1 for single coil bridge. any recommendation?
Super Dist. S, I use it in my G&L Legacy for bridge. Similar thick as AT1.
the neck with seems to me wider than usual
@mikebaughuk Thank u A LOT man. that really makes my decision of buying a cruiser much easier!
what pots does Andy use in his set up? 500 or 250k? id like to know for sure because im building a custom AT Clone guitar.
500k
May I Ask Which Potentiometers Are You Using In Conjunction With Those Pickups, Is It A 250k Pots Or 500k Pots?...I Already Bought The Pickups & I'm Going To Install Them On A Regular Strat But The Problem Is I Want To Know Which Potentiometers Won't Compromise The Pickups Too Much Whether In Bleeding Treble Or Making The Bridge Pickups More Muffled With Low-End.
Salah Kamel 500k would be a great valur for AT-1. Because those pickup has a mid-low characteristic.
Cruiser is my all time favorite pickup :p
wow, i want these pickups! :D
Oh god, that stereo separation of the voice and guitar. Sounds like a recording from the 1970s haha. Sounds good, but its annoying with headphones :-/
How do you balance at-1 and the cruisers? I've used dimarzio Paf Pro with fast track 1 neck, the output difference is annoying.. Did you use some sort of compressor to level the output?
prabowoputra just adjust pickup heights proportionately
Always so confused how dimarzio labels pickups as really dark, and then seem really bright when people demo them.
Mmm, great review and really nice tone, i'm thinking on swaping my pacifica's pickups for something like this, but what would you guys get for the mid pickup in this setup, considering i can't get the custom one? I'm looking for a deep sound with a nice clean tone, I'd reserve the neck and bridge for the punch...
Andy Timmons uses another Cruiser Bridge pickup in the middle position.
Yeah and it sound good but I was kinda thinking single coil tho... :P
Pau Barba Paul Gilbert uses an Area 67 in the middle position in his signature set - have those in one of my axes. It's probably the brightest yet sweetest SC diMarzio make and it blends nicely with other pickups. Going bright is a sure way of using the middle pickup more, on its own or with the bridge or neck pickups. I even omitted the tone control for it per Eric Johnson's preference and probably others before him.
Serious question, I love the tone, great demo, do you think all this gear talk on youtube is just bla bla bla? I find that I can get any tone I want out of a stock Mexican Fender Squire! In the studio or at home. I can make any guitar sound like any top quality gear. It's confusing to me why I can make a cheap stock guitar have amazing tone, but still I buy a quality piece of equipment. I would love to hear your thoughts
Hey great video but which Cruiser are you using in the neck? The Cruiser® Bridge
DP187 or the Cruiser® Neck DP186 ?
gtrslinger bridge
I search a answer, Andy Timmons use The cruiser DP 187 or DP 186 or the both in the middle and neck ? and if it's the both where is positionned ?
Thank you for your help
He uses 187. 186 is for bridge position
Actually no that is incorrect. Andy uses the Cruiser bridge model pickups for both neck and middle and the AT-1 in the bridge. He has a WV-6sb tremolo for his bridge and Gotoh tuners on the AT-10p. The AT100CL has a Gotoh 510 bridge if not mistaken. I am still searching which brand of pots he uses and which caps and his wiring config. His guitar body is alder btw and his neck is a nitrocellulose coated rock maple neck. He also has dual titanium rods in the neck of his guitar and he plays on .10's downtuned 1/2 step. I am thinking he uses Ernie Ball strings as well. I am pretty sure Andy uses 500k pots for his tone pots also but not sure about his volume. Many players like 250k for volume swells.
This guy ^^^ He's right :-)
Nice playing man!
Can you tell me what's the height of the pickups?
I threw those pups in my project guitar and they rock!
I've got a setup like this in my g&l I get the best results running flush with pickguard Andy Timmins had his set flush at the clinic I was at as well
@@joncallon7790 Thanks m8!
If your a timmons fan your a marco sfogli fan. Marco is to timmons as bonamassa is to eric johnson
What amp are you using?
Mike ATL Blackstar artisan 30
Any idea how the AT-1 sounds when split?
not good haha. Its not intended for that, and it doesn't do a "single coil quack" type thing very well. It gets really harsh, and thin sounding. Played a modded AT10P with a coil split humbucker.
The "2" position of the switch isn't accurate, because the mid humbucker adds a lot of midrange to the sound, picking it up and making it sound better.
John Price it sounds nice, it's not that hot but it sounds great!!
What value pots are in that silo special?
500k
JgHaverty Silhouettes come with 250K pots as standard.
Plays Andy Timmons signature pickup and Andy's riff, doesn't mention Andy's name once til the end but described the tone as John Mayer. How you gonna disrespect Andy like that :(
You are absolutely right ✅
Only getting the guitar through one ear..
Haa I have the same pick as him :D
I’m about to yank a cruiser neck out of my strat. Although it does what it proposes on paper, so to speak, It’s completely lifeless and compresses low frequencies so much that it pains me to play the low two strings on clean settings. It might as well have a poorly designed, built-in multiband compressor. bc it basically is. imo you can’t please everyone, so you shouldn’t try. Want a single coil? get a proper one. Want a humbucker? Get a proper one. Cruiser replaced an Amalfitano just to see...🤷🏻♂️🎸no no no
4:05. Did he call Andy Timmons tone typical shredder tone? Hold on, let me play that again... HE DID... BLASPHEMY.
cool video, you should clean that guitar though!
3:12-3:18
Me: Oh Electric Gypsy :D ! ...Never mind.
These pick ups give only one tone really! ANDY TIMMONS'S TONE!
Blackstar is a bad choice am for dimarzio's
I use marshalls with them and they kill.
BS amps are too dark for me
Fuckin' hell.. d'you eat fish and chips during your playing ? Watch that fuckin' fredboard uuuughhh !! Nice hot and oily sound though.
"...really kind of John Mayer feel,..." *plays Hendrix lick* WTF, over? Does this guy thinks John Mayer invented blues tone?
All young white dudes think so lol
what do you mean he literally played a john mayer song - slow dancing in a burning room
Fretboard needs a cleaning
Learn how to mic an amp
Greekfreak so right...Mayer cant carry Andy's guitar to a gig....John is your typical one style player...Sell out
Clean your fretboard!!! YUCK! For such a beautiful instrument thats an open handed slap in the face... Theres a difference between well played and aged, and grimey and unkempt
@cbosmooth
The john mayer song is
"Slow dancing in a burning room." :)
