Frequently Asked Questions:

How does the BurstBucker Pro humbucker set installed on the Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s differ from traditional PAF pickups?

The BurstBucker Pro humbucker set installed on the Gibson Les Paul Standard '50s offers several key differences compared to traditional PAF (Patent Applied For) pickups. Firstly, the BurstBuckers Pro feature a higher output level, providing increased power and presence in your tone. Secondly, they offer improved string-to-string balance, making notes ring out more evenly across the fretboard. Thirdly, these pickups have been designed with a vintage-correct magnet structure, delivering classic PAF characteristics such as warmth, clarity, and responsiveness to your playing dynamics. However, the BurstBuckers Pro also incorporate modern refinements like Alnico V magnets for enhanced output and tone stability, as well as superior corrosion resistance for long-lasting performance. Overall, these pickups represent a blend of traditional and innovative design elements that offer players the best of both worlds.
