This is the model originally designed for the neck position of the Ibanez Universe. The neck position needs to be warm, but not too fat (nobody wants the low "B" sounding like a tuba, right?), so DiMarzio scooped out some of the mids to brighten the low notes and kept the power down to a reasonable level to avoid unnecessary sludge. You can get everything from a good jazz sound with a clean amp to a wall-of-sound with heavy overdrive. Many players have discovered this is also a very good bridge pickup when playing with a serious amount of distortion--power chords retain more openness, and single notes have a lot of clarity.
Recommended For: All positions
Tech Talk: The trend of the last several years has been to play 7-strings with massive overdrive. Taking the extreme low end of the seventh string into account, DiMarzio has been recommending the Blaze neck model for the bridge position as well, where the lower output and tighter lows create better chord definition. The latest 7-strings Ibanez has built for Korn have been equipped this way.

Comments about DiMarzio DP700 Blaze 7-String Neck Pickup:
I added this pickup to my ARZ307 with the hope of getting a better clean tone. I had already added the bridge blaze and like it, but it was not a huge change from the stock Axis pickup. The bridge Blaze is a different story. Compared to the Axis Neck pickup, its way brighter and more bell like, which is what i was looking for. When i first fired up the amp, i was surprised to hear a more strat like clean tone coming from my ibanez seven string. Conversely, its more useable for distorted rhythm playing than my the Axis pickup. Very satisfied with this pickup and with the blaze bridge I feel i have a very versatile guitar at this point that sounds great! nice chug and clarity in the bridge, and bell like cleans in the neck. I also dig the look - flat black with chrome posts. I give it a 9 as theres always something better out there - but i wont need to look for awhile with this pickup.

no complaints for quality. came shipped with all the necessary hardware and then some. even included an allen wrench for the posts. Wiring was shielded and sturdy, with plenty of length. The sound quality is great - more on that later. No feedback issues,
I'm happy with the price I paid for this pickup. the overall sound and quality can match other more expensive pickups - at this point its about preference.
Comments about DiMarzio DP700 Blaze 7-String Neck Pickup:
This is the best 7 string neck pickup with ease IMO. You can hear an excellent demonstration of it on Vai's "For the Love of God", which also demos the Blaze Bridge. The neck pup is very smooth and has a huge sonic signature. I have played some neck pups that are overly focused in one frequency range, the Blaze is broad and clear. Very thick and rich yet clean for sweeps and fast playing.
