Alnico II Classics
Magnets: Alnico II (2)Bridge: 8.5Kohm
Neck: 7.6Kohm
Available Colours: Black | Zebra | Nickel | Gold
A superb traditional humbucker set for guitars that need more warmth and sustain. The earliest Gibson Patent-Applied-For (or “PAF”) pickups used a range of magnets that are seldom found anywhere on the market today, and if you're lucky enough to find a set the price will probably knock you off your feet.
Our Alnico II Classics set use the Alnico II magnets that have always held a special place in many a guitarist’s heart. If you have ever heard someone describe a PAF as “flute-like” or “more like a single coil than a humbucker, then that’s the Alnico II working its magic.
