Curious what PAF means?
PAF is an acronym for Patent Applied For.
It’s the nickname given to the original Gibson humbuckers designed in 1955.
PAF pickups were loaded into all of Gibson’s humbucker-carrying guitars between 1957 and 1962.
Most notably, PAF pickups were used in the legendary "Burst" Les Pauls.
What is the PAF sound?
The tone is powerful but also very open and dynamic, with a strong and bright attack, smooth mids and plenty of bottom end.
PAFs made it into the guitars of legends like Eric Clapton, Duane Allman, Paul Kossoff, Peter Green and Jimmy Page.
