Tone & Design

Project PAF #013 is crafted to deliver balanced tone and volume across all switch positions. Its medium-to-low output ensures a full-bodied vintage humbucker sound without veering into darkness or muddiness. These pickups shine when paired with a classic tube amp, whether lightly driven or fully saturated.

• Neck & Bridge: The similar windings of the neck and bridge pickups create a cohesive tonal experience, with smooth, balanced transitions between positions.
• Tonality: The 1018 nickel-plated screws and slugs tighten up the bass response in the neck and add a touch of bite in the bridge, ensuring clarity and definition throughout the tonal range.

Vintage Aesthetics: The raw, unplated nickel silver covers are buffed to a soft vintage sheen, showcasing minor imperfections that enhance their classic character. Over time, the covers develop a natural patina, adding to their authentic appearance. The bridge pickup features a subtle patina mark near the outer pole screw for extra vintage charm.
