DiMarzio True Velvet

[mazapegul]

I just installed the True Velvet in my Tele 52 reissue, both of them, plus the 4 way switch.

I recorded some samples if you are interested to ear how they sound like. the switch order is always from the bridge to the neck:
B, B+N(parallel), B+N(series), N

the amp is the Epiphone Valve Junior. There is no compression and I didn't touch the volume between the different sets:

The neck pick up has almost double output than the original, at least now I'm going to use it even alone.

The TV neck is a great pup. I have it matched with a Dimarzio Pre B-1 bridge pup.

I need to correct myself. The order of the sample recorded is not:

B, B+N(parallel), B+N(series), N

The following is the correct 4 way switch order:

bridge, bridge+neck(parallel), neck, bridge+neck(series)

the 4th position (the pups in series) sounds similar to an humbucker.

Sorry for the mistake.
