DiMarzio DP232 The Angel System

DiMarzio has always been known for magnetic pickups, but they believe combining magnetic and piezo can create a unique acoustic guitar sound. The wideband frequency response of the piezo, together with the depth of the magnetic pickup, opens up the soundstage, and the ability to select either sound and both together offers three distinct sounds. The Angel™ System consists of The Angel™ magnetic pickup, a Shadow Nanoflex saddle pickup, and a circuit built into the endpin jack including The Angel™ Active EQ system. DiMarzio has also positioned volume and mix controls on the soundhole

It has always been one of our goals to create a magnetic pickup that reproduces the exact sound of an acoustic guitar. After years of research, experimenting, and soul-searching, we've concluded that the most important characteristic of an acoustic pickup is pretty straightforward: it should sound and feel good. The sound part is obvious. The pickup has to "hear" the entire range of the acoustic guitar from top to bottom, with no gaps anywhere. The "feel" is just as important. It has to track your right- and left-hand dynamics and respond immediately to the sound coming off the string. A pickup that can do both of these things will do the job, and you'll be happy with it. And that's what we have accomplished with The Angel™.

Recommended For Acoustic guitars with 3-1/2 inch (89 mm) or larger sound holes using bronze or steel strings.
