Man, I cannot believe how putting some genuine '50s long PAF magnets in my newer pickups sounds so killer!
Every pickup I put them in sounded unreal. Those old magnets were the soul of the PAF sound IMO. The harmonics are increased like crazy! When my buddy heard it, he freaked out. He could not believe what a change that made.
I also own a real set of PAFs and putting a long magnet in a new pickup got me incredibly close to the PAFs.
There seem to be some on ebay every once in a while. I highly recommend! :wow :wow
If you have PAF clone pickups, you owe it to yourself to try them.
