If there was a new pickup that had the sound quality of an old PAF, all this magnet swapping, slug pulling business would be pointless, right?
I'm not talking about a new pickup that sounds identical to EdA's PAF, as no two PAFs sound identical, anyway. I'm talking about a new pickup that has all the qualities of an old PAF. If there was such a thing, then you guys would promise me to leave those old P-90s and Melody Maker pickups alone, right?
EdA, call me at (225) 926-1976. hogy

Hogy,

if you find a new pickup that breathes, sings, that has a woody tone and a sweet high ends, then we will not be forced to do all that magnets swapping. ... so RIGHT !

BUT what is the cost and availability ?
