The original single-coil “soapbar� design had a special sound; low notes were solid and not tubby � they had an almost “piano� tone quality � while high notes were fat all the way up the neck. Dimarzio recognized that this was a devastating combination, and naturally wanted to reproduce this sound without 60-cycle hum. In the end, DiMarzio found the best approach was to use their patented Virtual Vintage technology to create the Virtual P90. The two coils are tuned to different frequency ranges and output voltages, so tone and balance can be tuned by adjusting pole piece heights. It’s almost the same effect as adjustable high-fidelity speaker crossovers.
