DiMarzio DP181RD Fast Track 1 Guitar Pickup (Red)

Double the output of a standard single-coil puts this rail humbucker in high-power territory while maintaining the bright, clean character that full-size humbuckers typically sacrifice. The DiMarzio DP181RD Fast Track 1 Guitar Pickup arrives in red and slots directly into any Stratocaster®-style single-coil route, delivering hum-cancelling performance through a dual-blade design that generates a continuous magnetic field across all six strings. Unlike traditional rod-magnet pickups that can pull strings out of tune, the blade configuration eliminates magnet-pull and ensures even string balance from low E to high E.

The dual-blade construction creates a magnetic field that responds uniformly to string vibration without the tuning interference common to vintage-style pole pieces. Output levels sit comfortably between standard singles and full-size humbuckers, making this pickup a strong match for medium to hot bridge humbuckers in HSS configurations. A complete three-pickup set of Fast Track 1 units transforms any Strat® into a higher-output instrument while retaining single-coil routing, and the design stacks with other DiMarzio dual-blade models for custom combinations. Quick Connect wiring simplifies installation without requiring soldering expertise.
