From the thumbnail he’s looking like the World’s most interesting man..."I don’t often play guitar, but when I do I play Dimarzio pickups.”
Whilst shirtless
With all the fake shredder drama out there right now, it's so fucking cool and refreshing to hear Angel play these leads with no edits, minimal backing(you can barely hear the backing track!) and just raw dogging it. Nice open tone, great feel in the playing, and it's all real.
Angel is the man! Always loved his playing.
"Now, kneel before Zod!"
😂 Funniest thing I’ve seen all day! Hilarious!
Ha Ha! I love it!
Seriously
😂😂😂😂
I love his new album Songs in the Key of Zod.
I feel like the thumbnail sold me a bill of goods.
Angel Vivaldi will forever have a special place in my heart...His playing is so full of feels that you just can`t hate him.
Man talks about guitars the way Gordon Ramsay talks about food
I love Dimarzio pickups. I was looking for Air Norton neck demos at the same time i discovered a great guitar player. Thanks Dimarzio!
That tapping was cool! I love the 6-string versions in my Ibanez, and he makes everything sound great with these.
Outstanding vid, Angel! Love the lover correlation- an artist and its muse- making beautiful music together. ♥️
The air norton is one of my favorite neck pickups ever. So versatile.
Definitely picking up this guitar when I can. Pickups sound great and Angel kills it. Keep it up guys!
Went from shirtless thumbnail to recycled tire blouse.
😂
i’m dead 😂
😂
Thank god for angel..keeping shred alive. U are a guitar god!!!
If you love your pickups as much as you love yourself then you cant go wrong
Is that a bin liner he’s wearing , no wonder he took his shirt off , i bet he was sweating like hell !
Angel is a virtuoso and Larry I've used your pickups for over 40 years. I still have my original Super Distortions that I put in my '76 LP. Keep killin' it man.
Hi and thanks, I still love the Super Distortion too. All the best.
I've been using the Tone Zone since '91 when I popped one into a Charvel Holdsworth to perk up my tone for an upcoming gig and never looked back. I use the Tone Zone/Air Norton combo in many guitars. I love what it does for all of them, including my main ax, a Basswood Schecter that cost about $200 and sounds like a million bucks. I've always preferred low mids for guitar and DiMarzio know how to make pickups that check these tone requirements for me. Consider also that most guitars out there are some variety of bolt-on, strat scale. What you want is balance, and the Tone Zone is great at filling the tone spectrum. I think it's one of the most versatile and organic pickups ever made. It feels wonderful to play.
Sounds great!
That Shirt........?!?!?!?!!?
😆
If I had a signature guitar that is exactly what I would build. Love the sound and the newest Black color.
Beautiful Track and the end! Absolutely Georgius!!! 😘
Fantastic player!!!!
Btw his charvel neck is one of the most narrow 7 string guitar i ever flet honestly.
It's like playing 6
red comn No shit huh? Have you ever tried a Majesty? Just curious for reference. Played a Majesty once and man, that neck was NARROW. almost too narrow. I felt like my fingers somehow got fatter.
Q. Who are you wearing?
A. Glad with forceflex technology...unscented.
dimarzios are fantastic sounding! I'm actually thinking of getting tone zone/air norton combo.
so nice to see one of the world's best guitarists do an excellent demo video, with very direct, discrete demonstrations of different techniques and tones, with impeccable technique. his exposition is as artful as his artistry.
Something about Sea of Heartbreak just gives me goosebumps!!!!
DIMARZIOS RULE. From my Favorite Super Distortions to Clean Vintage Strat Single Coils Pure AWESOMENESS. Always been a Fender/DiMarzio fan
Ps: Awesome stuff Angel. 😁
Hi and Thanks
ok but why does the wall look like coffee
You guys have no idea how bad I want that guitar. And angel is such an amazing player. I've been listening to him for like 8 years and I still get goosebumps when I hear like Martian winter its great.
I still think the Tone Zone / Air Norton is the most versatile Dimarzio ever made...Some people might not like the half cocked wah sound and the mid presence but it really sits well in the mix
The neck is an air norton and the bridge is a tone zone?
@@alexanderlumberjack Yes.
I love the combo. And I began using Tone Zones as soon as they hit the market in '91. I bought my first Tone Zone at a Guitar Center in Hollywood about that time, popped it into my red Holdsworth Charvel, replacing a Duncan Distortion, and I was ready to rock. Great, great pickup, perfect for strat scale. I have a Tone Zone/Air Norton combo in one of my basswood Schecters right now and it just sounds wonderful.
what is that Gladiator Tshirt?
Wash Day tomorrow ..?? Nothing clean .. ?? lol
N O T H I N G C L E A N. R I G H T.
Just realized that NOBODY asked this already: @angel @larryDiMarzio: Which amp or modeller (
Air norton : best neck pickup ever (i have it in my LTD with a super distortion 7, pure awesomeness)
The Nova's pickups sound like they are supposed to be hooked up to something expensive, like a big and boutique, juicy and warm distortion pedal.
And now make this axe in 6 string version!
Could someone please verify: Are both the bridge & neck pickups (Air Norton)? He never mentions "The Tone Zone" nor does Charvel on there website. They only say (Air Norton). I love the tone of the bridge pickup and need to confirm what pickup it is? Thanks so much to anyone who can confirm!!
Just watched again: He said I ultimately decided on the (Air Norton) set? Is this video description wrong?
Hi, The pickup labels are correct . Hope that helps,
Larry DiMarzio
Hello @@LarryDiMarzio , Do you make the Air Norton7/ Tone Zone 7 in a soap bar configuration, or have the option for a custom pair in a soap bar config?. I want to replace the EMG's I have in my 7 string with passives.
What song was he playing in the beginning??
Tyler Miller martian winter 🥶
I want to change the Seymour Duncan Pickups on My Charvel DK24 -HH (full Shred) worst pickups ever, distant sounding, bad sustain, sooo scooped in the mids, harsh and sooo bright ...so Iam between the Ed Norton, Dreamcatcher, Gravity storm, I want a pickup that is smooth on the highs, nice sustain, clear mids, clarity and articulation ...any suggestions?
I think the Tone Zone/Air Norton combo would serve you well. They're warm, bright, and articulate all in one. They also sustain for days. They're a great overall set of pickups.
I have a Tone Zone I had equipped in my old RG that I may re-install. My JEM has an Evolution in the bridge and a Gravity Storm in the neck (Air Norton S gold rail in the middle and I hate it, would rather have a Virtual Solo or something like that). I can say that I'm pretty happy with my Gravity Storm in the neck, for now at least.
I live this man he is a great guitarist.
Love frok egypt to you angel 😊
Have a nice day
Im curious are the 6 & 7 string versions of the air norton the same or are there differences?
The difference is 1
@@colinboyd4371 lmao ass hole
@@toemasmeems Colins right, There is literally no eq difference par the addition to the low B, so literally 1 string man.
Angel is phenomenal. Killer demo 🤙
Thanks, working with Angel was a pleasure.
ANyone tried an Air norton with a D-SOnic in the bridge? WOuld this be a mis match in power or is the Air Norton still fairly hot?
That's the combo John Petrucci used in Systematic Chaos and that sounds pretty good to me
That's a great combo. I also recommend the Steve's Special bridge with Air Norton neck. Perfectly balanced, great clarity and harmonics. Petrucci used the Steve's Special for years in his Ibanez sig. Highly recommended.
There's something wrong in the video. Position 2 and 4 are both visualized with the SAME split coil position (04:23 and 05:29). I'd love to know which positions are what, but this is confusing...
Position 2 = split inner coils
Position 4 = parallel neck
Most ibanez with a 5 way HH have this configuration
0:34 How much people know in here if he playing "song" called Handroid from Daita. One of legendary guitarist J-Rock band, Siam Shade. Lol
💪🏻💪🏻Awesome Angel!
Give this man a sword and shield! ⚔️ 🛡
Laughing so hard knowing how much strength it took angel Vivaldi to censor himself in this interview.
Like watching the cable version of an R rated movie lmao
ROFL! Damn, was it that obvious?!
Oh hi Angel! Didn't recognize you without the Ice
So in the thumbnail he has no shirt, and in the video he’s wearing a trash bag
Yes but a really expensive trash bag.
A leather trashbag??
If you’re going to spend that kind of money it should at least have the built in drawstrings 🤪
I saw the thumbnail photo and I immediately went online and bought a set of Dimarzio Model P+J pickups for my fender Mustang PJ bass. I thought they would give me rock hard abs. I guess I should've watched the video first.
What is he wearing?
Custom Nova shredding shirt!
Monster player just like Gus Drax and Brandon Ellis....
I wonder why Charvel haven't ditched the string trees on their Pro-Mod stuff, like they did on Angel's (and Guthrie's) signature.
IMHO a significant oversight on otherwise brilliantly designed guitars. The TZ/AN combo is just a classic and in this setting it just works.
Vivaldi's sig guitar has a tilted headstock, the other charvel guitars do not. That's why it doesn't need string trees.
To get rid of string trees you need to have staggered height tuners or a tilt-back headstock. I'm guessing the added cost (mostly in labour / installation) of staggered height tuners would have brought the cost of the guitar beyond what they wanted to charge for it.
Nice tshirt, I want the same 😂
Yeah, wtf happed to the blazer...?😂
Vogue Bitches *clicks fingers*
Well larry all i wanted is steve special 7
That’s what the blaze 7 is.
4:16 Position 4 ffs! lol Great demo nonetheless
Angel Sexy Vivaldi ❤💫
I'm thinking about swapping out my Seymour Duncan for these....
Do it they rock
Do it now! DiMarzios absolutely smoke Duncans. I've been playing DiMarzios since 1986 and the Tone Zone/Air Norton Combo for almost three decades now.

This guitar looks expensive!
@Angel Vivaldi i prefer your 7 string playing over Steve Vai's. Nothing against Vai, it's just when he plays 7, he's very often going to abuse the extra bass string, and then it's going to stick out like a sore thumb, like when literally everyone else plays 7. But you blend the extra string into the guitar, which most people are not smart enough to do on a 7. You also don't abuse the low tones, and that is extremely impressive. I have my own way of doing that as well, but for the time being, that's my little secret. But I keep telling people that it's 7 string guitars that are the future, not just 6s, and you, more then anyone else who's big right now, is living proof of that. Great job my friend.
Oh god bless the fella.. wtf but I know, 100 folks 100 different strokes. As long as the bro is happy 🤙
I'm dimarzio man butTone Zone 7 and Air Norton 7, I don't liked, to much low and mid rage to me, In my opinion the sound of this pickups it's like a ball, for the 6 strings guitar, it's ok but not for 7 strings this is to much low and mids; I 've had D sonic 7, Air norton 7, Blaze 7 set, Crunch Lab and Liquifire and Tone Zone, of these pickups, the most I liked is the d sonic 7 but it's a little bit passed in the lows and mids and after to be searching and listening others dimarzio models, I've decided tu buy the titan 7 set, in my opinion is a very very balcanced pickup set; this pickups haves a very good frequency range that permit work well with the eq of your amp and others eq like pedals, guitar Fx processors, not are invassve pickups; very good job Dimarzio with the collaboration of Jake Bowen.
I like a lot of the Dimarzio offerings, but I personally think the Crunch Lab and Liquifire are some of the worst pickups I've ever used in both 6 and 7 string configurations. I also love JP's playing as well.
i bet your tone is bad
It really depends what you're after though and your style and your gear.
In a live show with high volumen you don't need all that fizz and high frecuencies that the other pickups offers, for the public that is only a harsh noise, I think this is really good pickup in a real live situation, I used a lot of pickups live and this set is very pleasant in the highs is like tape, and if you have some muddy frecuencies you can use a Eq to filtering depending other wood on your guitar (I don't recommend this in mahogany).

Dude he calls himself Vivaldi. He's an amazing guitarist though, but certainly very extravagant.
bro you realize 99% of you audience is male, so what's with the pictures...
LOL, actually it's 96%.
To send a message, of course. :D "Hey there, buddy, I am Angel Vivaldi, and today I am here to demonstrate my signature pups, awesome playing and of course...my abs."
Simply an example of what a REAL man should look like, my hunty boo boo tootsie roll.
@@AngelVivaldi LOL
Just give in already, Angel is far too sexy to resist.
Everything about him is a bit show-off, a bit bling-bling 🙄
And?
DiMarzio - Very much appreciate your pickups ; but this video was beyond pretentious in tone. The presenter distracted from the sound of what was being demonstrated. Cheers.
Lol. He wanted to design pick ups that didn't hold him back as a musician. 😂 So fake.
