Quick Comparisons: Bareknuckle Brute Force VS Dimarzio Tone Zone

I’ve always wanted to try a Tone Zone pickup, having liked the super distortion I thought I would give it a spin in my shell pink Squier Strat, of which previously had a Bareknuckle Brute Force pickup in the bridge. Here’s a quick shootout, using all the same presets from my FM3, back to back. Electronics are all stock, 250k value pots.
