DiMarzio DP217 YJM Single-Coil Pickup

You might not realize it from his music, but Yngwie Malmsteen is a vintage Strat® collector, and he swears by his 50s and 60s axes.

He also swears by DiMarzio's HS-3™, and he's always wanted a vintage magnet-stagger version to go with his best guitars.

While there is still a strong resemblance to the HS-3™, the YJM™ has more presence and brilliance, particularly on the high strings, and still no 60-cycle hum.
