Stock pickups: built for modern headless clarity

This Dragonburst Run 17 pairs the Hot Rock bridge with the De La Creme neck — a proven setup for tight multiscale rhythm definition, smooth leads, and genuinely useful in-between tones via the 5-way blade.

Hot Rock — Bridge
Punch • Strong mids • Controlled lows

The bridge voice is about authority and control — staying defined under gain, keeping palm-mutes tight, and holding its place in a dense mix.

  • Punch + cut: mid presence that keeps riffs forward.
  • Modern tightness: controlled low end suited to multiscale tuning.
  • Gain-friendly clarity: stays articulate as saturation increases.
  • Blends well: bright, percussive in-between tones on the 5-way.
Best for

Modern rock/metal rhythm, punchy leads, tight palm-mutes, and mix-forward tones.

What you’ll hear

Bold mids, controlled lows, and an “immediate” feel that stays defined under gain.

De La Creme — Neck
Warm • Clear • Singing leads

Tuned for sweetness and clarity — clean definition and expressive lead tone without getting muddy or harsh.

  • Singing lead voice: smooth highs + vocal mids.
  • Clean definition: chord clarity and note separation.
  • Useful contrast: a real switch in character from the bridge.
  • Middle positions shine: bright, usable blended voices on the 5-way.
Best for

Clean passages, melodic neck leads, warm rock solos, and smooth rhythm textures.

What you’ll hear

Sweet, open neck tone with musical mids and a smooth top end—clear without sounding thin.

Why this pairing is deliberate: the bridge delivers drive and definition, the neck stays sweet and expressive — and the 5-way positions add extra mix-ready voices without needing a pickup swap.
