Fat Diane PAF

Full Bodied PAF Versatility

The Fat Diane is based directly off of a set of unique Patent-Applied For humbuckers pulled from a 1960 ES335.  Offering a full bodied vintage PAF tone that holds the classic clarity, articulation, and versatility of great vintage PAF's, coupled with atouch more output and a warmer grade magnet.  The end result in a richer and warmer full response that retains great vintage touch sensitivity.   Clean or dirty, the Fat Diane offers the perfect blend of warmth and clarity in a fatter PAF tonal package.  Wound with vintage correct Plain Enamel magnet wire and powered by AlNiCo 4 magnets, the Fat Diane is the go to option for full bodied PAF tones.

Built by hand in Syracuse NY, the Fat Diane features classic Manlius design elements, including hand scatter-winding, american sourced magnets, vintage steel alloy parts, universal depth base-plate legs, maple spacers, and light wax potting for consistent performance.
