Tonerider Alnico 2 Classic PAF Humbucker PickupsThe Alnico II Classic is a superb set for guitars that need more warmth, fullness and sustain. The earliest Gibson Patent Applied For (or "PAF") pickups used a range of magnets, but PAFs made with Alnico II have always held a special place in many a guitarist's heart. If you have ever heard someone describe a PAF as "flute like" or "more like a single coil than a humbucker" that's the Alnico II working its magic. At higher gain settings, the Alnico II
The Alnico II Classic is a superb set for guitars that need more warmth, fullness and sustain. The earliest Gibson Patent-Applied-For (or "PAF") pickups used a range of magnets, but PAFs made with Alnico II have always held a special place in many a guitarist's heart.
If you have ever heard someone describe a PAF as "flute-like" or "more like a single coil than a humbucker" - that's the Alnico II working its magic.
At higher gain settings, the Alnico II Classic really nails the fluid distortion sound of players like Slash, who use the smooth attack and longer sustain of the neck to great effect during solos, and the tighter, fizzier tones available from the bridge for rock rhythm work.
Design Notes
The Alnico II Classic began life as a custom OEM order for a high-end UK guitar company, and Tonerider worked with their techs to get the wind just right. Cries of "more scatter!" were heard over and over again, until they got down to less than 30 turns per layer for the neck and bridge pickups - about half the number of turns per layer on vintage PAFs, but much more in line with the current best in class hand-wound PAF clones.
Tonerider made a few of these pickups back in 2007 and launched them into their standard range in 2008. The Alnico II Classic is currently Tonerider's bestselling humbucker.
