I've been a fan of the crunch lab/liquifire combo for years, and wanted to try the new Illuminator bridge/neck combo. I really dig them! They have the same kind of feel as the crunch lab/liquifire, but with a slightly lower output which makes them sound a bit les modern than the crunch lab/liquifire. These are not coming out of my guitar ever again!

Prefect upgrade
EmadMokhtar 26.06.2020
I have Ibanez GRG 270 BK guitar, which is a budget guitar. I decided to get this pickup as an upgrade to my guitar. It was the perfect choice. I can hear and feel the quality of the sound improved a lot. I bought the Bridge version as well.

Perfect way to achieve the modern Petrucci tone
Anonymous 04.05.2016
Great pickup. A perfect blend between the old Liquifire and the Air Norton. Is more raw and in your face than the liquifire. Splits really well. The voicing is definitely high shifted in comparison to the older Petrucci models. Clean, sounds really jazzy and piano-like. For lead is to die for, although the Liquifire is definitely smoother and more "soft".
Price is a bit high, these should be priced around the usual dimarzio neck pickup price. Quality is on par with the usual dimarzio offerings. Plenty of possibilities with the split and parallel options. I really liked the pickup in parallel blended with the illuminator bridge split for clean passages.

Very impressed by these pickups. Before i used active EMG's and was afraid to get passive's without losing the bite that active has. Illuminator's sound very tight, with good low end, nice clean sound. Don't want to take them out of my guitar.
