The PG Blues humbucker set is meticulously crafted to replicate the iconic tones of Peter Green's legendary '59 Les Paul. It includes Alnico II sand cast magnets, scatterwound bridge coils with 42AWG plain enamel wire, and uniquely wound Heavy Formvar neck coils that capture the famous "out of phase" mid-position tone when both humbuckers are engaged. With vintage-correct solid nickel silver baseplates and covers, along with unpotted coils, these pickups deliver a vocal-like quality with bright yet sweet highs, warm bass, and the signature "out of phase" character.
The bridge humbucker provides classic '59 PAF tonal characteristics with exceptional touch sensitivity due to its unpotted coils. Meanwhile, the PG Blues neck humbucker, wound out of phase with the bridge, retains its distinctive and full-bodied tone, whether played clean or with overdrive. These pickups are perfect for musicians seeking authentic vintage sound with a unique twist, suitable for a wide range of playing styles from haunting leads to blues rock.
Neck measuring closer to 7.4k.
