Since 2001, Andy Timmons has been playing a DiMarzio custom bridge humbucker that has only been available on his signature Ibanez guitar, and it has been his first-line pickup ever since. Described as a player's player, Andy Timmons is known for his great touch, phrasing, and tone. Naturally, his DiMarzio AT-1 guitar pickup is on par with his signature sound. Delivering the rich tonal characteristics of balance, warmth, and clarity, this DiMarzio pickup achieves its focused sound with the same patented technology as the PAF 36th Anniversary, but the sound is hotter-perfect for rock.
The DiMarzio AT-1 was originally designed for a 25" scale, mahogany-body guitar, but it adapts very well to other instruments. It has enough bass and mids to warm up brighter guitars, and enough clarity for 24" scale set-necks as well. The Andy Timmons DiMarzio humbucker is recommended for the bridge position.

Comments about DiMarzio DP224 AT1 Andy Timmons Humbucker Pickup:
I had another humbucker pickup in the bridge position of my strat but it sounded very sharp and had barely any mids. I replaced it with this one because Andy is my hero and I just got to hear it in person at his masterclass. So I have no reason not to get this thing. This thing is beautiful. It is very well balanced and has a strong mid range that doesn't get sharp on the higher notes so it doesn't hurt anybody's ears. It also sound very PAFish but hotter. Although I don't use much gain I still can if I want to.
Comments about DiMarzio DP224 AT1 Andy Timmons Humbucker Pickup:
Great lead pick up in the bridge position. It has a well balanced tone to it. Nice mids and highs. Roll down the volume on the guitar and it cleans up. Crank up the volume on the guitar and goes into a beautiful overdriven tones. I"ve had this in my strat for months. I love it.
