Re: Why no talk about PATB-3?
I'm still lost on "over-circumsized", you either have a foreskin or you don't.
But I've always thought that there should be a few more PATB options. I'm tempted to order an A8 59/C with the PA polepieces hidden away from the eye under a smooth nickel silver cover.

Good luck with that. The physical Parallel Axis format is Trembucker, and there are currently no solid-looking covers for it, and as it's a proprietary format, your order most probably will get turned down by the Custom Shop.

Unknown? He's an amazing guitar player that's been around for a long time (maybe you should look him up). And that's his real name his parents gave him when he was born. Maybe his circumcision leftovers are what became known as Adieu.

I figured I'd probably have to get the local jeweler or something to do the cover (I'd just need to spec it out for him), but the BYOP page on the Custom Shop website list Parallel Axis as an option.

...and there's probably a really awesome dude somewhere out there named Dick Wienermayer, who also through no fault of his own alas makes for an unfortunate product namesake

Adieu, I only pop into the forums a couple times per week, but what I can always count on is coming across a rude, pessimistic, non-constructive post from you on nearly every good thread. Keep your negative attitude to yourself or go away!
"flaming gay"...seriously? How is that not cause for an infraction?
Back to the topic, the PATB-3 is an awesome pickup. Its looks aren't for everyone, but it's one of the best sounding pickups Duncan makes!

Re: Why no talk about PATB-3?
I actually have a NOS first-year MJ-wound PATB-3 that I've been hanging onto for a while.
Can't quite bring myself to get rid of it, because it's such a cool pickup, but I don't currently have a guitar to put it in, either!
First-world problems for sure, LOL!

Interesting... I think you maybe be right on the hot PAF observation. I don't see that much of talk about the Saturday Night Sp. as well (9.40K A4... not that different when compared with a Brobucker). Back in the day, it would have been very popular I think.
I still love each of my 3 Brobuckers tho... more than PATB-3.

Re: Why no talk about PATB-3?
I think Blues Saraceno had a signature guitar from the Samick guitar company in the 1990's. I think it was either Alder or Basswood with a floyd bridge and maple neck? I've been eyeballing this pickup for awhile but thought it would be TOO fat. This thread has taught me a lot. I love Blues Saraceno and his first three albums were a BIG influence on me. his tone was SWEET. His dad built his amplifier called the "Dirty Boy" I believe.

His dad had an electronics company called Dirty Boy that made and sold the Afro Fuzz pedal . . . which I think was an inspiration for SD's Tweak Fuzz.

i like it a lot. does kinda what youd expect, bigger mids, less top and bottom.
