    Vintage Correct Parts is proud to offer, for your consideration,
    A completely original and fantastic
    Vintage Gibson
    1960's
    Patent Sticker "PAF" pickup
    If you've been on the "tonequest" then look NO further.
    From Clapton "Beano" era to Clapton "Cream" era to Page on his #1 to Duane Allman to Dickey Betts to Slash to Joe Perry to Chuck Berry on this ES-350t to Keith Richards and Mick Taylor to Mike McReady to Rick Nielsen - this list of players that have made legendary music with the PAF pickup is seemingly never ending.   It's no coincidence, folks.... These late 50's and early 60's Gibson pickups are magical.
    Plain and simple.
    Many have attempted to recreate and reverse-engineer these fabled pickups and some boutique winders have gotten close,
    but nothing compares to the real deal.
    "3-D", "Transparent", "Throaty", "Woman Tone", "Double Tones", "Reedy", --- we've heard all the superlatives...
    The bottom line is you need to play these early humbuckers to understand how inspiring they are, they are hard to find and when serious players want the real thing, they come to Vintage Correct Parts!
    Vintage Correct Parts is the world's foremost dealer in all things PAF!
    Our sticker'd late 50's PAF's normally sell for MUCH more, so this is your chance to get ALL of the PAF tone at half the price!
