P.A.F. Pickup Secrets: No Wax vs. Wax Potted P.A.F. Shootout (You Decide!)

Vintage P.A.F. pickups were not wax potted but what happens when you pot them? In this video Jon Gundry of ThroBak electronics compares a non wax potted P.A.F. repro with a wax potted P.A.F. repro. Wax potting humbucker style pickups has become standard for most large production pickups including many P.A.F. repros. Wax potting is done as a way to eliminate the possibility of feedback from high gain and high volume playing environments. One detail that separates vintage P.A.F. pickups and high quality P.A.F. repros from the pack is the fact that they are not wax potted. Gibson pickups from their golden era of the 1950's and 1960's were never wax potted at the factory. Many players feel that not having wax potting preserves the treble response of the pickups as well as allowing the acoustic properties of the guitar to come through the pickups and amp. The question is, what kind of tonal impact does the process of wax potting have in term of feel and response to the player and a recorded guitar track? In this video that question is explored in depth. ------------------- Chapter Headings: 0:00 Intro 0:20 What is Wax Potting? 1:22 Classic era pickups NOT wax potted 2:03 What Wax Potting does to the Sound of a Humbucker 2:31 A/B comparison elements for the shoot out 3:28 Wax Potted vs. Non-Wax Potted comparison 5:05 Jon's thoughts on the A/B comparison 6:31 Details of how the pickups were wax potted 7:35 Closing Comments _____________ ThroBak Electronics is a world leader in classic reproduction guitar pickups.
