The DiMarzio Super Distortion is probably one of the best known replacement humbuckers in the DiMarzio lineup. A while back, I talked about the Super 2, which has almost the exact opposite EQ at the Super D and is commonly used for the neck position. Today, I'm looking at the Super 3, used primarily for the bridge position.

Music Review: Green Tea – Live At Elixir
The exquisite instrumental music played by keyboardist Andrey Novikov, guitarist Jake Pashkin, bassist Damien Langkamer, and drummer Gaetano di Giacomo is a sublime jazz/funk performed with the perfect touch.

New Steam Refunds Policy Has Some Game Developers Concerned

Indy Comics Spotlight: Deon Delange
Deon DeLange is a South African artist with a style all his own. “My work is often described as cartoonish, but I don't really see it that way,” DeLange said. “The look is not deliberate, it's just the way I draw, I guess.
