"...if you want to get as close as possible to vintage Gibson humbucker tone, the ’59 PAF Clones are a great way to go." -Guitar Player Magazine, May 2014


The 59' "Patent Applied For" Clones are for the tone purist. Authentic to every detail using all American made parts. 1959 spec butyrate bobbins, 1959 spec long leg frame, custom vintage spec plain enamel wire, custom alnico 4 cast magnets, maple spacer, vintage spec screws, and vintage spec slugs.

These are very clear and warm with lots of single note articulation. The upper frequency range has exceptional bloom and lots of airy tone with the un-potted coils. We meticulously wound each coil with our own pattern and offset to represent what we believe to be the best vintage P.A.F. examples out there.

Stock with vintage single conductor external braided leads and 49.2mm string spacing just like the originals. Un-potted coils.

I couldn't be happier

by Ilario -

Mounted a set with nickel cover in a Lester that at the same time benefited from a total refit: new Faber hardware with an aluminum tailpiece, new electronic components with .015 and .022 paper in oil caps wired in 50's style. This guitar now sounds and feels like a dream and I can't wait to put a low-output set into my ES-335. Thanks, Mojotone!

Excellent PUPs

by Shelby -

Ordered a set of these(through Zzounds) for my 99 LP to replace the 490R/498T. They sound great with the Mojotone pre-wired LP harness. They sound wonderful clean, verging on single coil clarity, and with gain they are classic PAF. Construction was also lovely. Very pleased! Thank y'all!
