Brickhouse Toneworks Introduces Mason Deluxe P.A.F. Humbuckers

Two metal guitar pickups on a wooden surface, showcasing their sleek, brushed finish.

Expanding on the legacy of Brickhouse Toneworks’ highly regarded 1960 P.A.F. and Semi 60 P.A.F. humbuckers, the Mason Deluxe P.A.F.'s deliver a unique tonal profile characterized by a chimey, bell-like clarity and exceptional articulation. The sound is both smooth and responsive, with a dynamic range that allows for a sweet, rolled-off tone as well as a powerful, aggressive distortion. A defining feature is the rich, harmonic overtones that bloom and sustain, providing a heightened sense of depth and dimensionality. The pickups also exhibit a slight microphonic effect, which enhances pick attack definition. This results in a complex, yet clear sound—fat and woody in the neck position, and sparkling with pronounced punch and tonal definition in the bridge.

The result: an extraordinarily responsive P.A.F. humbucker with a transparent and open sound, allowing the guitar and player's natural tone to be the star of the show.
