If you wanted a bit more of a Hot-Rodded set of pickups from ThroBak then the MC-102B set is what you're looking for. This set features a pretty traditional resistance rating for the neck with a hotter wind for the bridge. This allows you to add just a little extra punch to your bridge sound if you need it. With a great wiring setup you can roll back the volume to clean it up and get a bit more traditional sound but then turn it up to bring the heat for leads or a solo part.

Unlike their vintage counterparts, every set of MXV humbucking pickups are made to ThroBak's exacting specifications so you know you're getting the best set possible every time. Regardless of what style guitar you put them in, these are some of the finest replica vintage pickups being made today.

Neck 7.6K, Bridge 9.1K, Long A4 magnets.

From ThroBak
I frequently get requests for a low resistance neck, higher resistance bridge vintage spec. P.A.F. pickup set. So when one day a customer requested a set P.A.F. humbucker repro set with just this combo using numbers from a famous Burst I got to work. The result is the MC-102B Custom set. The overall combination of magnets, wind and output strength makes for a flexible set with a fat, mud free bridge pickup with lots of output with the volume pot dialed full and lots of room to roll back. Paired with a clear, articulate neck pickup you have a very flexible set that will rock as hard as you want in the bridge position. Pro player Justin Derrico, guitar player for Pink and TV show The Voice, loves the flexibility of this combination. Wound on the ThroBak 1957 Leesona-102B winding machine and loaded with Illinois made vintage spec A4 magnets, the MC-102B Custom set is 100% ThroBak Maximum Vintage P.A.F. humbucker reproduction. Made in USA.
