Have you ever heard a bridge pickup that made a guitar sound like a
giant mosquito attack? If you’ve run into this problem, The Tone Zone
is the solution. The Tone Zone is hot enough to qualify as a
high-output pickup, but it has a wider dynamic range - hard picking will
produce a lot of power, and softer picking will be much cleaner and
quieter. It’s got tremendous bass and low-mid response to reinforce the
bottom end and make the overall sound bigger. The highest single notes
have depth, and chords sound huge.
Patented dual-resonance coils
reproduce more overtones than you’d expect from such a fat-sounding
pickup. It makes a great match with an Air Norton, PAF Joe, or PAF Pro,
and split-coil mode produces an excellent single-coil sound as well.

Tone Zone is hot enough to qualify as a high-output pickup, but it has
a wider dynamic range — hard picking will produce a lot of power, and
softer picking will be much cleaner and quieter. Many models can be
used in the neck position, from the Air Classic to the Air Zone; the
PAF Pro and the FRED are also good choices. Higher-output single-coil
replacements like The Cruiser and Fast Track 1 are also recommended.
