DP297FGCR. Pickup Super Distor'Tron, Bridge, F-spaced, Gold Cover with Cream Insert.

The Super Distor’Tron™ offers the performance of the infamous Super DistortionxAE in a Gretsch Filter’tron-style package. We've built in the same blend of power and tone that has made the original Super DistortionxAE the worldwide standard for high-output humbuckers for over 50 years.
The Super DistortionxAE started a sound revolution. Replacement pickups simply didn’t exist before the invention of the Super DistortionxAE in the early 70s. The Super DistortionxAE was the first pickup specifically designed to kick a tube amp into total overdrive and is still the standard by which all other high-output pickups are measured. The Super DistortionxAE has a perfect blend of power and tone: both single-notes and chords jump out of the amp and fill the room (or the track) with a wall of sound. The balance of tones is classic x97 thick, boosted mids, big lows and fat highs. This is the sound you’ve heard for over five decades on platinum records, from players as varied as Ace Frehley, Al Di Meola, Phil Collen, Tom Scholz, and Paul Gilbert. It’s also versatile: 4-conductor wiring allows instant access to StratxAE-like split and series-parallel modes. Discover what thousands of great players know: the Super DistortionxAE is the best all ’round high-power pickup ever made.

The Super Distor'Tron™ includes optional mounting hardware for humbucker mounting applications.
