The Power'Tron was born out of TV Jones' desire to create a pickup that has the character of a PAF-style humbucker yet retains the essence of a Filter'Tron. It sounds a little bit darker and somewhat gnarlier, with more windings - as much as a PAF humbucker - for hotter output. Mixing the vintage tone of a golden-age PAF with the rockabilly twang of a late-'50s Filter'Tron. Full body and a clear top end that is naturally dynamic. Digging in reveals a chunky low-end breakup paired with a barky top-end grit that sounds amazing through a tube amp. This is a great choice if you like the overall Filter'Tron sound but want more guts and glory than usually provided by lower output pickups.
