PAF®
DP103 & F
Classic vintage tone - a smooth, almost
voice-like quality - the PAF® has that intangible
swell to the notes after attack. It possesses vintage output,
and breathes freely with an open, warm character. Played flat-out
through non-master volume tube amps, the PAF® recreates
the deep character of the great plug-in, turn-up and wail school
of tone.
Modern potting techniques and tight, consistent
winding eliminate squeal and microphonics common to the originals.
Here is solid tone for both neck and bridge positions. Balances
well in the neck with hotter bridge humbuckers.
Recommended For:
Neck and bridge positions in all solid,
semisolid and hollowbody guitars.
Tech Talk:
There are two basic types of vintage humbuckers:
those that have a hotter, like new tone and those that have a
softer, aged sound. The Air ClassicTM
has the softer sound, and the PAF® is a little
tighter and tougher - very useful for cleaning up muddy-sounding
neck positions. Its also good as a bridge pickup combined with
neck & middle single-coils: not loud enough to overwhelm them,
and bright enough to blend well.
