Is it the D sonic?

The JP pickups are proprietary custom wound, and are only made for EBMM for use on the JP guitars. I believe the closest you can get from DiMarzio are the Air Norton and the Steve's Special. Lately JP has been using a tweaked version of the D-Sonic in the bridge position.

News flash: This just in from Dimarzio....The JP neck pickup has the same performance specs as an Air Norton (DP193), which is described on our website. The only difference is the polepieces, which does not have a significant effect on the sound. The bridge pickup is not identical to any of our stock models, although it is most similar to the D Sonic (DP207F), which John has recently switched to.
