RS Guitarworks True 60's® Humbucker Set
Regular price
$ 395.00
The RS Guitarworks True 60's® are copies of the most special set of 1960 PAF's we have ever played. These second generation pickups are as close to the tone of the 1960 PAF's you can get without a time machine or $5000! They are copied down to the last detail and each AlNiCo II magnet is hand tested in shop to insure they are just like the real deal. The True 60's have un-potted coils, just like the original PAF's. Each part is hand-aged so not only do they sound old, they look it. If you want a classic, fat PAF tone, these pickups smoke. The bridge pickup reads 8.5k and the neck reads 7.7k. The True 60's are available in new or aged versions, with or without covers.
The RS True 60's lead-time is 6-9 weeks. If you are ordering with other items, be aware that the pickups may ship separately.
Slot-Head Pickup Adjustment Screws
Regular price
$ 4.95
It seems it's almost impossible to find the slotted head version of the Gibson®-type pickup height adjustment screws found on old Les Pauls®, Gibsons® and other humbucker-equipped guitars! Many people do not like the phillips head version that is common now, and have asked for the slotted head version. Available in new or aged condition, and are sold in sets of four.
RS/Fralin PAF Humbucker Set
Regular price
$ 395.00
The RS/PAFs are made for RS Guitarworks by Lindy Fralin, and are based off the real 1960 PAFs found in Roy’s main Les Paul®. Similar tone as the RS True 60, but more aggressive, more like the Rev. Billy G. The Neck reads 7.7K, the Bridge is 8.4K. Both have unbalanced coils and are unpotted with Alnico IV magnets. With 4 Conductor wire.
Lead-time is 6-9 weeks. If you are ordering with other items, be aware that the pickups may ship separately.
Psychebilly Blues Humbucker Set
Regular price
$ 430.00
These pickups are copies of the real PAF's in Greg Martin's 1958 Les Paul®. His guitar and it's pickups are nothing short of amazing. Our copies are wound by Lindy Fralin and are exact down to the magnetic strength; the Psychebilly's are un-potted, and have Alnico II magnets. They are the best low-power "PAF" on the market. The Bridge pickup reads 7.7K, the Neck pickup reads 7.8K. Like Greg says, "While my PAF's may not be the loudest, they'll knock down any outhouse in a mile radius!" These pickups are the only way to go if you want that Pure Kentucky Tone.
The lead-time for the Psychebilly's are 6-9 weeks. If you are ordering with other items, be aware that the pickups may ship separately.
