Here are the characteristics that make a great vintage humbucker: a soft magnetic field, sweet tone, perfect balance between warmth and clarity, the ability to go from clean to distorted by pick attack alone. The PAF^® 36th Anniversary Bridge is hotter than the Neck. It is not only for set neck 24¾” scale guitars, but it’s also an excellent bridge pickup for trem-equipped bolt-ons. The PAF^® 36th Anniversary was built any way you want it. The PAF^® 36th Anniversary Bridge is available uncovered, and also with three types of covers — standard polished and plated, buffed with no plating, and vintage worn cover that looks so authentic and broken in that you’ll swear it’s been hanging around since 1959.
