Pickup DiMarzio PAF 59 Bridge (Black)

The DiMarzio PAF 59 Bridge is a pickup designed for those who want to recreate the legendary sound of the first Patent Applied For humbuckers of the late 50s. Based on a detailed analysis of a 1959 Cherry Sunburst Les Paul from Larry DiMarzio's collection, this pickup captures the character and dynamics of the classic models to the fullest extent possible.

The PAF 59 Bridge is equipped with Double Cream pickups on a long-leg nylon plate, which replicates the design of the original. The slightly demagnetized Alnico5 magnet and 42AWG coils provide authentic sound without any unnecessary coloration. With a slight amount of top end clutter, this pickup adds softness and balance to the sound in the bridge position.
