Designed for Steve Vai’s signature Ibanez PIA guitar, the UtoPIA
Bridge pickup features a custom, laser cut baroque style cover over a
gold patterned layer.
Using the Evolution Bridge as the basic
platform, the UtoPIA Bridge was designed to focus more on the low-end
response of the guitar while adding thickness and body to the top end.
The challenge was to still deliver the harmonics for which the
Evolution is known. Upper midrange frequencies were also dialed back to
produce a less aggressive attack and provide more control. The UtoPIA
Bridge boasts a big, bold low end, high output, and thick top end.
Available in F-spacing only.
A
perfect choice for bright guitars that favor an upper midrange peak,
the UtoPIA Bridge will level out uneven frequencies. Great for
coil-splitting in combination with the UtoPIA Middle.
