The PBF-55 and PBF-77D Rock set are high-output models that make sure clarity and smoothness aren’t lost, even at high volume levels. The PBF-77D uses both ceramic and Alnico magnets along with 2 types of steel to project an offset magnetic field for maximum humbucking, output, and focus.
PBF Humbuckers are fully sealed and shielded making them sweat-proof, quiet if you touch them, and immune invisible noise from stage lights and studio power supplies. The shielded 4-conductor cable is ready for coil splitting and series or parallel humbucker wiring.
PBF Humbuckers come in black, nickel, or gold in balanced versions for neck (rhythm) and bridge (treble). Black mounting screws are included (#4-40 x 1”) for rectangular versions (Bartolini #1 Shell shape).
PBF Humbuckers are also now available in b-one traditional rounded-corner shape for pickguard and body-mount installations with your standard #3-48 screws.
Mounting hardware is not included – be sure to order what you need for your particular guitar.
