Pickups

The classic PAF humbucker sound with an extra portion of mids and trebles: we present to you the PAF Pro. For guitarists who don't want a high-gain screamer, but would like their classic sound to be a little hotter and more powerful. A particularly popular combination: a PAF (143059) on the neck and a PAF Pro on the bridge. That way, the volume balance between neck and bridge pickups is preserved. A quick reminder: since the strings vibrate more vigorously closer to the middle of the string, the neck pickup (with the same configuration) is always a little louder.

Splittable
Ideal lead pickup in the bridge-position
Also suitable for the neck position

Amazing pickup!!!

Anonymous 23.07.2016

I put it in my ibanez rg350dxz in neck position. It sounds very good when clean, and just incredibly amazing with distortion!!! You can play all - from blues to 80's shred - anything sounds awesome with this pickup.

Just Diamond

So what can I say for that diamond now? It's just perfection, I think it's the best selection for rock style, maybe metal as well. I just installed it on my Strat Harley Benton ST-20HSS. I bought that guitar the same money with the Dimarzio Paf Pro, and the guitar sounds extremely amazing, from one cheap guitar, it sounds as good as one very expensive guitar, I suggest that fantastic pick up on everyone🤠🤠💥🎸

PAF PROF

Luthioss 20.02.2020

Le micro à tout faire n'existe pas, et ce PAF PRO fera le bonheur des rockeurs près du chevalet comme du manche. Pour le Jazz, c'est différent, il s'exprime bien dans les medium et m'a un peu déçu pour les aiguës en son clair; pour celà on gagnerait à le splitter, et je vais peut-être le faire. Il favorise assez les harmoniques sur du haut gain au préampli. Couplé avec un PAF JOE le rendu du son en position parallèle est excellent, très musical, plutôt agréable et permet tous les traitements par pédale d'effet. Il réagit abondamment aux variations d'attaque, les réglages du potard de volume ne sont pas innocents; à ce titre je lui donnerais le surnom de "PAF PROFESSOR".

Das alteProblem:
PAF- Pickups kombiniert mit Mahagoni-Gitarren klingen am Hals fett-mittig mit Bass-Matsch Risiko. Satt singende Mitten am Steg aber insgesamt eher wenig Brillanz.
Gegenmittel?
ein PAF-Typ , der nach oben etwas heller+ offener ist, ruhig mit etwas mehr Output, aber noch im klar definierten und gemäßigten Bereich und nicht jegliche Dynamik platt bügelnd oder mit Distortion-Säge.
Der DP151 Paf Pro ist in der Bridgeposition da eine gute Wahl, klanglich in etwa zwischen Duncans 59/Custom Hybrid (offener) und Duncans SH5 (fetter). In der Neckposition muss er dann aber doch ziemlich tief reingeschraubt werden, um den Bass im Zaum zu halten. Schade dass es den Paf Pro nicht für den Neck in einer etwas abgespeckten Version gibt. Er klingt dort aber immer noch offener und klarer als ein Standard-PAF. Mit 2 PAF Pros in beiden Positionen merkt man schon die klangliche Ähnlichkeit. Fazit:
Als Classic Rock Bridge Pickup sehr empfehlenswert. Für die Neckposition geht die Suche weiter...
