  • Dimarzio pickup question...

    Is the cover on a dimarzio solo pro removable? My Strat has aged white covers and I was hoping to just remove the white and use the existing cover on it.

    Thanks up front!

    I would think it would be since it is just a cover. I think you have to re-pot the pup when you put a new cover on it - otherwise it will be microphonic.

      If would think that repotting only applies to humbuckers, not strat pickups with their plastic cover.

        Thanks! I just want all my covers to match and it seems like that won't be a problem.

          Your basically will end up seeing the top of the black bobbin, magnets and the copper coil windings. Is the Solo Pro a stacked single coil? DiMarzio makes extended (longer to cover the depth) covers in all colors you can put on.
          Tone is like Art: Your opinion is valid. Listen, learn, have fun, draw your own conclusions.

            Yeah, you'll need a longer cover from what I remember.

              Yes it does take a longer cover so I'll have to hunt one down.

              On the upside the pickup is just what I needed. Very nice fit for what I was looking for out of the pickup.
