This DiMarzio DP181SP Fast Track 1 (No Flange) is a special version of the Fast Track 1. It's designed for guitars where the pickups are mounted to the body and whose cavities are routed like a lipstick tube with no triangular space facing the bridge. The side-flange (triangle part) is cut off on this pickup and the leads are instead installed at each end of the bobbin.Fast Track 1The Fast Track 1 is hotter and more muscular than The Cruiser (our sku# 302324 & 302325), but its still very bright and clean sounding not at all like a full-size humbucker. The dual-blade continuous magnetic field creates an even string balance with very little magnet-pull, eliminating the out-of-tuneness common to rod-magnet designs. The Fast Track 1 pickups power (double the output of a standard single-coil) makes it highly recommended in combination with medium - to - hot full-size humbuckers. You can also put a whole set of Fast Track 1 pickups in a Strat style guitar, or create custom sets with any of our other dual-blade modelsRecommended for all positionsTech TalkThe Fast Track 1 has more headroom than a vintage single-coil, and performs well with both clean and overdriven amps. For any situation where single-coil sound with higher power and hum-cancellation is required. Can be used in any position in a standard Strat setup. Although it isn't as loud as high-output pickups, it combines very well with all of our full-size humbuckers because it has the dynamic range to keep up, especially with overdrive.No flange designHot and muscular soundDual-blade continuous magnetic fieldVery little magnet-pullDouble the output of a standard single-coil Minimize
