The tone of the GuitarHeads Alnico Supreme is based off of the Vintage PAF Pickups of the late 1950's, however this modern version has much more output & midrange bite. The warm traditional glassy tone comes from the Alnico V Magnet, and each pickup is Double Wax Potted for Microphonic Suppression. These pickups also feature a 5 Conductor Lead, allowing you to Tap the Coils for alternate wiring.
