Bare Knuckle PG Blues 'Nickel' Set
Designed to replicate the sound of Peter Green's famous '59 Les Paul, complete with the legendary “out of phase” tone - achievable, when both pickups are on.
The PG Blues humbucker set features Alnico II sand cast magnets, scatterwound bridge coils of a 42AWG plain enamel wire and uniquely wound Heavy Formvar neck coils for the famous “out of phase” mid-position, when both humbuckers are on together. Vintage, solid, nickel silver baseplates and covers, along with totally unpotted coils - all adding to the vowel-like vocal delivery, bright yet sweet highs, warm bass and the trademark “out of phase” tone.
Individually, the bridge humbucker is pure '59 PAF in tone with all the touch sensitive response, that is expected from unpotted coils. The PG Blues neck humbucker, although wound out of phase with the bridge, retains a wonderful, pure and fat tone of its own - both clean and with overdrive.
From haunting ambient lead lines and delicate chording to all-out blues rock, these humbuckers are providing an authentic vintage tone with an unique edge.
Blues, Jazz, Country, Funk, Reggae, Britpop and Classic Rock. The bridge and neck humbuckers in this set are wound permanently out of phase with each other and are suitable for all solid-body, semi acoustic and hollow-body guitars. Any guitar, that would benefit from a warmer, brighter vintage voice. For players, who specifically want that famous "out of phase" in-between tone.
