THE MAGNETO DESIGN LAB ELEC'TRON. PAF SIZE, NASHVILLE STYLE.
The ELEC'TRON was inspired by the late '50s Nashville Sound humbucker designed by Ray Butts. Great care was taken to preserve the original specs and materials while offering them in a more accessible PAF humbucker size. The Vintage Set has the output of the late '50s original. While the Vintage + has more output for a bit more push. This humbucker-sized Filter'Tron style pickup is beautifully matched in pairs, with our P90-Soapbar, a '52-TSC Neck, or in a custom HSS / HSH set. So when you want the ultimate in County, Worship and Classic Rock tones, the ELEC'TRON is the easy choice for your next guitar upgrade or build.
