    Posed in acute on my Gibson Flying V, coupled with an Air Norton (see review)
    I am very pleased with the Tone Zone, which gives me the edge and the output level that I need while keeping a certain warmth. Perfect for Hard 70-80's that I like! The high quality of this mic as his alter ego in the neck position is the ability to give a great crunch, and clean, when we decrease the volume, and without losing momentum or without changing the grain.
    Convenient and perfect for me, I recommend it!

    Excellent mic, I took it to compensate for the fact that I do not play on amp but DG stomp, which makes me lose a few harmonics. tonezone is monstrous in the treble, I'm happy with this trs mic I use for the total distortion, for rhythmic mtal trs saturated, and the fact that serious! I would put 9 because I know yet if this is the best, there's another ending for DiMarzio will come out with two strips, which will possibly be any tear.
    I replaced the microphone Super distortion bridge of my ibanez with rg270DX.

    - Lower 9, 8 medium, 6 acute. lots of bass, midrange and treble well represented emerging property: pluto-oriented big rock.

    - I use this microphone position Chevallet (version floyd a little wider) for 2 months and indeed I did not find any fault!

    - In position humbucker has a clean sound quite "old" making good roots and saturation is really powerful! (370 mv still the beast!). once you get the splits in simple, clear sound is clear and precise but still very low saturation and you lose a little precision, which is normal.

    - I have not tried other models, I hesitated between a couple gibson (496R + 500T) and DiMarzio (PAF pro tonezone +), and because Gibson had some problems of d…

    - I have not tried other models, I hesitated between a couple gibson (496R + 500T) and DiMarzio (PAF pro tonezone +), and because Gibson had some problems of distribution (approximately 3 months of waiting) I pulled over DiMarzio, and I do not regret absolutely not! it's super cam: accuracy, power efficiency!

    - In a French music magazine mail order it is displayed at 120 euros, driven by store it cost me 112 euros: it is not given but frankly it's on once everything is plugged think no more, This is a micro bomb! good quality / price ratio

    - With the experience I referrer that choice without hesitation ... but who nevertheless tried the seymour duncan super distortion.

    - Thanks to everyone who advised me of AF in mind this purchase!

    Then the tonezone Di Marzio, I just have it and I just get on my Ibanez RGT42 to replace the original shit that serves microphone.
    So a test day and suddenly I have to redo the settings on my stuff.
    Becaufe the microphone is terrible. I was looking for a specific micro and sounds to play so fast and brutal death that the sound turns to mush.
    well I'm not disappointed, this microphone has a sacred potato, is accurate and it sounds great. harmonics are terrible. the highs are not aggressive, the mediums are boosted and bein serious but not present drafts (although I am granted B).

    I use this mic with a Lag a basswood body. The tone zone is a good trs mic with impressive bass and midrange. On a skyscraper in mahogany or basswood, so warm woods, the sound is fat, round, but remains trs prcis the distos keep a grain trs trs tightened it good.
    The only regret is not clear sounds tops even when the microphone splitter. A micro to large rserbver so rhythmic metal.

    Ahhhh, then, there's really nothing to do! The sound is precise and biting, are not as good potato with an EMG active, but it beats up well! On this point I was not disappointed and I recommend it to anyone who plays any kind of metal! Even in tuning low enough, the microphone is accurate!

    on the other hand, it seems splittable, but since the guy who gave me the Mount button do not, well I can not say how it is ...

    I think I will first take a look at the active emg, but if it comes to liability, no doubt, I do it again this choice

The sound of the guitar keeps its tone and distos are fat but accurate! The palm-mute are clear, there are all the notes played and the sounds are to die for! Harmonics out of themselves, it is sublime:) In short an excellent microphone, I advise those who play the big sound but want to invest in assets!

    In short, I won, I paid € 120 free installation, and if I had money again for sure I do it again this election!

    How long have you use it?

    What is the particular feature you like best and least?
    TRS is a good mic with a big grain and potatoes with lots of Armona INTERESTED probably not due to bad mediums available to it. I mounted on a LAG Rockline replacing a Seymour Duncan Trembucker because the sound was too mdium and not enough low in relation to micro in my BC Rich Mockingbird with the Ms. US DiMarzio, BC Rich food littralement the GAL, whose handle is however more enjoyable, but that's what I always say: "it is the body of the guitar makes the sound more than the microphone, which is the only to give an outline of the grain…

" Apparently, nothing beats a good guitar Made in America

    Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
    I did try the Seymour Duncan Trembucker, the one with the studs in specially adapted for Floyd Rose guitars teams, whose sound is less potent than the DiMarzio Tone Zone. One complaint the latter: it is wrong for a Floyd Rose dimentionn precisely, if the high E and not in front of the blocks (that is - that the screws are on the microphone). Otherwise the loss of his must be minimal since the boost does not seem too Souffir.

    How do you report qualitprix?
    I bought it on the web, for 111 Euros a rest even when a case both given the dynamic rendering it has.

    Exprience with, you will do again this choice? ...
    It is possible that one because I Rasht if I have another guitar with enough potato, but I think staying in the BC Rich ... microphones and they ride home are fantastic, although I do not know what it is exactly. This means that it may be not tomorrow the day before.

    A month ago that I acqureur port of micro ... I advise anyone who wants to release a standard sound! The low prsence allows both to obtain a clear, soft, even in Mount easel, and in the same time is to make the drive sound of remarkable power, without excessive as for X2N. The highlight is that we can provide big rhythm and take a solo with the same sound, something made impossible by most microphones nazillards too.
    To this end, the super distortion is even more versatile, but more shy.

    If the choice silent again, I walked again without the micro hsitation, for now I try to test as many microphones as possible about my diffrent scratch, and my favorite is the Tone Zone.

    I use this mic for almost a year, it is mounted on an easel in RG570EX ibanez.
    I do not have much experience in various types of microphones because I has only one skyscraper, so I'll compare the encien, an Ibanez V7 V8 or I do not know.
    Well the first thing that caught my eye is in its precision, both in the serious than acute, such as tremolos with palm mute on the E ring much more serious and cut net is less swimming in the soup this level. same for high-speed solos in notes semplent more cuts and sharp.

    Being a metal, I like the big sound, but I egallement to ring in the treble, and I really think this microphone for ca is ideal: it has a little bump in the mid, which gives a good touch agressivit of the power chords (the sound is "rapper" was certainly the impression his agreement to play in the foam) and therefore a good place for the same precision for large rhythmic, and therefore clearly apparent acute versatile this level.
    Its clear it is done well, but right after it depends on the equalization.
    Oh, and more so the microphone is splittable for a good clear sound.
    In short it is a micro hot and very aggressive in parallel. A very good investment.

    I IT CAN BE USED yesterday. My music store for me install anything on my cort 210 gm (yes, small).

    pemplacement it comes in the bridge and change a lot of stuff in spite of the scratches. It is much rounder, ds I change the selector to micro insrer another, I shall give away the tone zone, and becomes more prcis, each note sounds.

    So I use it also in the clear because its agrsse oreilles.En less distortion to the metal, the sound is more than greasy as before.

    basically I'm really pleased and I remake that choice, even if it is better to change your guitar!

    So then, my microphone is preferred but we will try to remain objective.

    The Tone Zone is what? According to legend already he was originally commissioned by a certain EVH (Eddie Van Hallen for short) which was fed to burn out his fingers trampas PAFs in paraffin, this microphone is ... ameilioré a PAF, and yes even a (Satriani has no monopoly of Paf retouched).
    It has been boosted in the bass and meds, as well as the output level.

    This microphone is known as a micro patator Lots of bass that comes out a little wrong elsewhere. In fact it is doing very well also clear ... if the violin and the rest of the electronics allow it (is not it? a guitar would be a set of things that vibrate together in harmony? you do not say)
    What I have found on my Gibson Les Paul Classic:
    - Present but very low just drooling
    - The meds powerful and well-defined
    - An output level that will more than respectable cruncher an easy tube amp while playing the volume and attack.
    - Treble a bit weak people, but offset by the bridge position.

    The big big thing about this mic is a safe and dynamic ENORMEEEEUUUUHHHH, JB is a laminate, the 500T suddenly seems cold and stiff, super distortion screaming something that braille .... Sings every note, harmonics stand alone.

    It replaced a Gibson 500T (excélentissime also micro) and from a slight lack of output level and bass a little less accurate, it is very close to it. So everything has its place on a Gibson, do not bother to fear the soup low, but it will still be the proper position in height (but you pay all your guitars from time to time, right?) .

    In short, if you are looking for a microphone who can be both subtle and powerful without going overboard, which can increase the level of a stringed bass that is missing, I suggest you try it
    For if you are against a hooked end to the stratum and on TV, forget about its existence until

    CA is 6 months since I installed this on my micro ibanez ex 520 in place of the original microphone and it's a vamp!
    I could not believe the distos distos become true! is precise, full of good bass in rhythm, it's pretty devastating! The Seymours seem ridiculous next door!
