WTB; any different pickups other than stock for pre-refine fly

Post by InsideInfo »

Now that I've got a pre-refine fly that is getting painted and will never be original again I'm cool with continuing to mod this one out if anyone has any aftermarket pickups they'd like to get rid of. Also, will Dimarzio still make the ones for the fly that they used to offer? Cheers.

I’ve yet to see this substantiated by more than accounts of user error. Until it is, here are the two most recent foolproof ways of ordering that I can vouch for:

-Shoot an email over to [email protected] and tell Steve you want to order [pickup model number here (e.g. DP163)] for Parker Fly.

-Message a reputable Dimarzio dealer (such as BanjoMikez) and let them know you’d like to order [pickup model name or number here] for Parker Fly. Note that, because dealers place bulk orders, it may take longer to get an order through a dealer than direct from Dimarzio if you’re in the US. Everywhere else in the world, you can order only through your local international dealer.
Dimarzio wrote: In addition to the Parker Fly Custom Neck model PHWP1 and Parker Fly Custom Bridge model PWHP2, which are currently standard on most recent Flys, we also offer Fly versions of the Humbucker From Hell®, PAF®, PAF® bridge, PAF Pro®, PAF Joe™, FRED®, Mo' Joe™, Norton®, Air Norton™, Air Zone™, Tone Zone®, Breed™ neck and bridge models, Air Classic™ neck and bridge, Bluesbucker™, AT-1™, EJ Custom™ neck and bridge models and LiquiFire™.
@InsideInfo, if you have any F-space Dimarzios laying around, they can also be swapped onto the Fly baseplate or have their plate trimmed to fit. My two current Flys have pickups modded in this way because it was faster than placing an order and waiting for them to be wound and mailed to me.
