The Return of a DeArmond Icon, in the Spirit of the Great Eras
A true benchmark from the 1940s to 1960s, the Dynasonic returns here in a version designed to respect DeArmond's DNA: a fast response, an articulated tone, and that "alive" quality that highlights both fingerstyle and pick playing. Guild recreates it by drawing inspiration from 1960s production methods, to recapture the look and feel of a collectible pickup... with the consistency of modern manufacturing.
For Which Styles and Guitarists?
In the neck position, this Dynasonic Gold/Black targets musicians seeking an expressive and nuanced pickup: vintage rock, blues, country, surf, clean jazz, or simply a full clean tone that remains precise. Thanks to the adjustable poles, you can fine-tune the balance string by string to adapt the pickup to your gauge, radius, and attack.
Dynasonic Design: Fine Adjustments and Enhanced Presence
This Dynasonic features a historic characteristic: it is among the first pickup models equipped with an adjustable pole piece, an approach that contributes to its "punchy" character and dynamic feel under the fingers. The individually adjustable Alnico V poles deliver bright trebles and a firm, full response in the lows, while the slightly hotter output compared to vintage equivalents allows you to drive an amp or effects chain harder without losing the typical clarity and attack. Following the 1960s-inspired format, the bridge pickup is taller (approximately 14.3 mm ) and the neck pickup shorter (approximately 11.1 mm ), for consistent adjustment between positions.
