Description: Purchased From Vintage Correct Parts in Chicago. Pickups reads 7.56k. The description below comes from VCP."This is a "pre T-top" mid 60's Patent Number PAF. It's bargain priced as it's had a few repairs."This fantastic-sounding pickup came to us with a bad "slug" side coil and some old tape applied to the baseplate. We sent this off to Brandonwound pickups for some TLC. He was able to wind a new slug-side bobbin and age it to match the original screw-side bobbin. The windings on the screw side are original. He also painstakingly removed the old tape from the baseplate and was able to save the Patent Sticker! In addition to this the baseplate's screw holes on the "feet" of the pickup had been compromised. He tapped two new screw holes on small steel tabs and soldered them in place so they can once again accept the height adjustment screws. It was a LOT of work, but well worth it to save this old gem. It reads 7.56k on our meter and sounds fantastic.""Short" alnico magnet, Double Black bobbins have mild wear (slug side bobbin has been replaced."Circle in square" bobbin opening, original pole screwsPhillips base plate screw, Patent Sticker is present with some wear and flaking. 7.56k output reading - "amazing PAF tone... woody and bell like ... a great great great sounding pickup" Please Message me with any questions.
