The DiMarzio Gravity Storm Neck Pickup is the latest release in the ongoing collaboration between Steve Vai and Dimarzio - the next step in Vai's pickup evolution.
The Gravity Storm Neck pickup has some unique properties for a neck humbucker - reproducing great pick harmonics (unusual for neck humbucker) and a real throaty tone, not unlike the bite of a single coil but with the depth of a humbucker.
