The Air NortonTM started out simply to be the AirbuckerTM version of the Norton®. We thought it would make a distinctive-sounding bridge pickup with high-gain amps, but we soon discovered that it's a radically neat neck pickup, too. The tone is deep and warm, but not muddy. It's hot, but not distorted. It's even got cool harmonics, which are really unusual for a neck humbucker. The patented Air NortonTM magnetic structure reduces string-pull, so sustain is improved; and pick attack and dynamics are tremendously controllable and expressive. Combine the Air NortonTM with an Air ZoneTM, The Tone Zone® or Steve's SpecialTM in the bridge position for a perfect blend of power and tone, or use an Air NortonTM in the bridge position with an Air ClassicTM Bridge model in the neck position for a distinctive medium-output blues-rock sound.
