The DiMarzio Gravity Storm Bridge 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 Bridge pickup delivers more depth and warmer highs and mids than the Vai Evolution humbucker, a real plug and play pickup that doesn't require a whole load of tweaking. With the highs being so fat you are able to increase treble on your amp without losing that important tone and sustain.
Steve describes the Gravity Storm bridge pickup as 'a thundering cloud of ice cream'.
