Just like the name suggest, its that high gain clean tone with lots of clarity and sustain - Poundcake!

Unlike the 1978 Pasadena, this has a much higher output for more gain push. However, we use 43 awg gauge wire just to give it the dynamics, clarity and power for today's applications.

In addition, we use an Alnico II magnet to give it the desired sustain and response without the extra mids Alnico V magnets can be known for.

If you are looking for a pickup that articulates, has drive but is very harmonically rich, this is for you.

Pickup features:

Enamel wire
Alnico II magnets
Output is approx 9k @ Neck
Output is approx. 14k @ Bridge
All mounting hardware included
Available in regular or F-spacing
Hand made to order in the USA

Very crunchy!

Surpassed my expectations! So much sustain and attack, yet very articulate! Must have if you're a metal player!!!

Nails the later EVH tone perfectly!!

Great pickups that nail the later era EVH tone or any big warm rock tones you could hope to achieve. Sounds great split as well. Overall great, warm & gooey ,Alnico 2 humbuckers for any application . Highly recommended

Outstanding

Heavy with incredible tone and character. Clean or fuzzy, it does both. This is my second set of pickups from Planet Tone and I’m now a dedicated fanboy. -Brian @ Green Suiter Custom Guitars
