The first electrical signal generated from your guitar comes from your pickups. No matter
what processor, amp, or effects you use, if that first signal is not what you want... your final sound won't be what you want. The pickup is the most important link in the chain.

All of my pickups are built for the best possible tone through exhaustive experimentation and testing. I don't pay much attention to resistance. The wire used, the number of turns, magnet choice, and coil geometry is really what things are all about. I list resistances because that has become the industry standard used to describe pickup specifications

Sheptone specializes in humbucker pickups modeled after the 1959-1961 long-magnet gibson P.A.F.


First let me say that there is no such thing as a reproduced PAF because they all sounded different.
There were many different sounds, because there were many different variables in the manufacturing process. Some even sounded really bad. What can be done is to duplicate the sound of the "average" good sounding P.A.F. by duplicating the assembly process and materials, to consistently reproduce the tone of the best-sounding original P.A.F.'s
