Viva la PAF! The Seymour Duncan Retrospec'd Antiquity Humbucker Neck pickup sounds like an iconic '50s PAF humbucker.

Every pickup is signed by Seymour himself on the magnet and bottom plate. For bona fide vintage PAF tone and vibe, the Seymour Duncan Retrospec'd Antiquity Humbucker Neck pickup nails it.Seymour Duncan Retrospec'd Antiquity Humbucker Neck Pickup Features: The legendary "PAF" humbucker sound you've heard on countless records To retain the sound and appearance of the originals, the pickup is not wax potted Hookup wire includes the classic braided "push back" cloth braid wire Magnet and bottom plate are signed by Seymour Duncan

  • Just like seth lovers but better!
Color: Nickel Cover
Amongst all the paf clones available out there, i had found the duncan seth lovers to sound the best (my review is limited to semihollow es-335 style guitars)... until i tried the antiquity hb. It's "paf-ier": more open, sweeter, creamier, etc (you know... All those words used to describe pafs). Woman tone is unparalleled. Very sensitive to attack and right-hand dynamics. No microphonics for a moderate overdrive setting at full band rehearsing volumes. This neck pickup is stamped 2015 and the relic-ing on the pickup cover is very subtle (the 2013 bridge pickup i paired it with is way way too relic-ed, which makes me think SD has mellowed down on the relic-ing -like fender on the road worn series). DC resistance similar to seth lovers (7.29k neck, 8.34 bridge). Includes pickup rings (too curved for an es guitar, more suited for les pauls, i think) and screws. I found no info on the SD site regarding relative output (lows/mids/highs) for comparison with other similar SD pickups, but i'll go ahead and say it's the same as the seth lovers (6/4/8 from the sd comparison chart). Slightly less output than seth lovers (probably because the featured alnico 2 magnets are factory-degaussed on the antiquities). Having both a sheraton with seth lovers and a es-335 with antiquities... My life is complete (for now). ... show more

  • Beautifully sounding pickup!
Color: Nickel Cover
Been experimenting for several years with floaters on my Hofner Jazzica, finally decided to cut beautifully carved top (OMG 😱). And didn’t regret)). The pickup sounds very articulated, focused, still acoustically rich (it’s not wax potted), bright (pleasantly), and sweet at the same time. Someone may find it looks a little “over-aged”, but I don’t care about look at all)) P.S. For an archtop you’ll definitely need a higher mounting ring. ... show more

  • One star off because I don't like the pre-distressed pickup cover
Color: Nickel Cover
Exactly what I wanted sound-wise. One star off because I don't like the pre-distressed pickup cover. The Seth Lover's an option, but it doesn't have the "aged" magnet of the Antiquity. It's a lovely, mellow, mellow PAF sound. I put it in a Gretsch, which isn't usually a place where one would find something like this and I find myself playing on the bridge pickup more than I do on any of my other guitars. And the cover's nothing a soldering iron and a few more bucks can't fix. I just wish I didn't have to go to that trouble. ... show more

  • but these are one of the best sets of pickups I have ever heard
Color: Nickel Cover
I have never heard a par live in person, but these are one of the best sets of pickups I have ever heard. They have a beautiful clean sound, and a smooth sound with distortion. Wow!!!
