It depends on what the pickup is supposed to DO. More wire equals more output and darker tone, less wire equals brighter a less output. The amount of wire is adjusted to each set....

question? when your making a bridge pickup do you wind it with more copper wire to get a crunchy, heavy sound or do you put on less copper wire on it

My Platinum PAFs sound better than ever. I must get some audio clips to you. Had them for about 7 months now.Folks, if you know the PAF sound, these pickups are it. Great bite and real tone, unlike many of the HBs Gibson has churned out post-PAF. The bridge pickup has that edge. The output is just right and you can really vary the tone by playing with the height. You can get up under the strings without losing your tone. I personally prefer backing off a bit. Great productMike Neer

Hi, i'm probably gonna be a customer soon. So After a lot of reading on your website I think I can say the platinum series are the most exact paf copies of the humbuckers you make. Correct me if i'm wrong! My question is. How much are the relic platinum and how much are the shipping costs to belgium? Does the relic option effect the tone in a good/bad/any way?Thanks a lot

Please watch the Platinum Video Part One for info on what a PAF, basically they were the first humbucking pickups. P-90's preceded them and were noisy single coils with a different fat tone, I will have a P90 demo soon. P90s were used by the Who, Freddie King, Santana, etc. PAFs by Jimmy Page, Duane Allman, Joe Walsh etc.

can you explain the differance in tone between PAF, p-90, burst ect, im rebuilding a lespaul and want a quality sound

low quality bobbins don't have a solid core, they have air spaces between poles or slugs, this creates an acoustic resonance that doesn't sound so good. The good bobbins, like the vintage stuff has a solid core that the wire is wrapped around.

What would be the difference between the high and low quality bobbins? |
