In 1957, Gibson began a new era of tone with the invention of the Patent Applied For (PAF) Humbucking pickup. Many Gibson guitar models were shipped with the new humbucking pickups that started a whole new era of what would become one of the most iconic pickup models from 1957 to 1960.
These models were carefully designed using the same technology Gibson used for their recent collector's edition pickup sets. Gibson carefully reverse engineered an original PAF and using 3D scanning technology to recreate each part. These 4 PAF sets Gibson has created represent each year of this iconic era. Each year has a unique tone profile credited to different plain enamel wire turn counts on period correct butyrate bobbins and different grade long rough cast magnets.
