The full story

Description

The 59 bridge model is a vintage output humbucker thats great for rock, blues, and more. Its vintage-inspired coils give it an airy quality that is firmly in the P.A.F. family, and the alnico 5 bar magnet and vacuum wax potting make it compatible with lighter guitar strings and louder amplifiers than were ever used in the 1950s. The result is a pickup with tons of old-school tonal character, but with a brighter top end, and a slightly more compressed sound. The 59 neck model is one of our most popular pickups because its so versatile. Like its bridge-position sibling, the 59 neck is designed in the spirit of the original P.A.F. humbuckers of the 1950s, with sweet sustain, and a warm, full sound that still possesses a clear attack. Weve made a few refinements to slightly modernize the design and make it more adaptable to different styles. The high end is slightly boosted for improved pick-attack clarity and the mids are a little scooped for an open, smooth sound thats great for preserving the clarity of the individual notes in a chord. The 59 neck was born to accompany the 59 bridge, but countless players pair it with a high output bridge humbucker, such as a JB or Custom. Its also a popular choice for humbucker-routed Telecasters. Offered in 6-string standard humbucker and Trembucker spacings, the 59 model features a variety of traditional vintage treatments, such as 42AWG plain enamel mag wire, long-legged nickel-silver bottom plate, vintage single-conductor braided push back lead wire, and no logo. If you opt for a four-conductor version for coil splitting, the 59s single coil mode is crystal clear. As with all of our P.A.F.-style pickups, the 59 vintage output humbucker is wound on Seymours classic Leesona 102 pickup winding machine from the old Gibson factory in Kalamazoo, MI. Also available for neck and bridge in a passive mount 7-string configuration.
