Everything you wanted to know about .... / Re: PAF Joe
« on: February 28, 2022, 10:07:41 PM »
I bought a paf joe and put it into the neck of my 22 fret Epipone LP, paired with a Dactivator bridge.  It has two sets of adjustable poles.  Recently, adjusting them, optimizing  pickup height, and wiring the pickup in parallel gave a much more vibrant sound.  I definitely recommend using a very small bright cap to keep the delicate overtones if you like doing volume swell.
Super classic rock n roll tone, wired the bridge pu in series so that when I switch from this there is significant volume boost.  This is very much a rhythm guitar pickup.  Everyone was right about pick attack, but I use a heavy pick like .7mm minimum, and I like the amount of definition. very low noise.   The sound was super punchy and clear for leads when I had it in series, and I may add a switch for that later, but I wasn't as happy with that tone as the 10/10 parallel.
PS this would be mud in a fender neck position...  someone already said do not try and I won't.
