Description

Back in 1978, a customer handed Seymour Duncan a stock P.A.F. and asked for something more: a rewind that could push harder into natural and artificial harmonics without losing that vintage PAF character. What came back was a hotter wind with real bite, and it’s the same recipe used in this ’78 Model set.

Each pickup runs an Alnico 2 magnet, wound to the exact hot specs of that original custom job. The pairing gives you a warm, breathing crunch on rhythm parts that never turns brittle, while leads come through with extra grip on pinch harmonics, tapped runs, and pick-attack overtones. It’s a magnet/output combo built for players who lean on dynamics rather than just gain.

This is the set for anyone chasing that late-70s hard rock voice – thick enough for driving rhythm work, but articulate enough to keep tapped licks and whammy bar dive bombs clean and expressive rather than mushy.

  • Alnico 2 magnet for warm, dynamic response
  • Hot wind based on Seymour Duncan’s original 1978 custom rewind
  • Enhanced sensitivity to natural and artificial harmonics
  • Black cover finish
  • Sold as a matched pickup set
