They just make something up about how this added chunk of metal preserves the fragile harmonics of the crystal lettuce, and the patent office has no real way to disprove the claim, so they stamp a barely modified version of the same thing.Īll stacks suffer the same basic problem: you're putting a dummy coil about as close as humanly possible to the primary coil, for the sake of selling an aftermarket pickup that will fit in a pre-routed cavity, and won't require any more fuss or muss than a regular pickup. It looks to me like most of the differences between the designs are superficial changes that are just intended to skirt he particulars of the other patents. I'm not sure what it is about the DiMarzio patent / Areas that should make them any better than other stacks.
