koula901 Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 ReverbNation sent this to me to day, and I thought it was pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalismanRich Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 That's a great way to set things up. I don't put a lot of stock in most comparisons on Youtube because they are not well controlled or thought out. This is a lot better since you can bounce back and forth in the comparison.

Yooper Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 That is great...now that I've had to do the recorded comparisons the hard way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbonesullivan Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 This video has reminded me why I LOVE P90S. Such a great fat clean tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duhvoodooman Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 I really liked the sound of the Jazzmaster pickups, too. Never owned one of those. Now I'm wondering how much longer that will be the case.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I'm wondering how much longer that will be the case.... I never put much thought into them until I was working on a 67? mightve been 65 or around there, Ive forgotten, Jazzzmaster. I became somewhat fixated on them after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koula901 Posted February 25, 2017 Author Share Posted February 25, 2017 I have a new appreciation for the '58 PAF HB. They really sound balanced, and I think I'm migrating from a perference for single coils to HB pups. Can anyone recommend an HB PAF that they think will sound like these? And, do you think installing them in an H 150 LW would make a huge difference as the LW is chambered. And does anyone know if A13 refers to the magnet?

Go to youtube and watch the Doug & Pat Show videos. They have several pickup shootout episodes that feature humbuckers. Let your own ears decide.

bobmeyrick Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 The thing to remember is that there was variation in the original PAFs - different magnets, windings - which is why different options are offered by pickup makers. For example, Bare Knuckle have Stormy Monday (alnico 2 magnets) designed to replicate 1957/8 PAFs, Mule (alnico 4 magnets) designed to replicate 1959 PAFs, and Riff Raff (alnico 5 magnets) designed to replicate 1960 PAFs. Have fun with the search! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
