Tim Henson and Scott LePage demo Notorious and Igno pickups in tongue-in-cheek clip

DiMarzio has announced three new signature pickups for Polyphia’s instrumental wunderkinds Tim Henson and Scott LePage, who have demoed their range of tones on video, using their recently released Ibanez signature electric guitars.

Henson’s gold-covered pickups include the moderate-output Notorious Minibucker and Notorious neck and middle single coils, which boast calibrated, degaussed Alnico 5 magnets for a vintage tone.

LePage, meanwhile, has developed the Igno bridge humbucker, which packs Alnico 8 for increased output, plus DiMarzio’s scatter-wound, dual-resonance design for balanced treble and bass.

The Notorious Minibucker ($134), Notorious neck and middle ($129) and Igno ($129) are available now. Head over to DiMarzio for more.
