  1. Original Gibson PAFs. Bust out the home equity loan and take the plunge! thats should read 'some Original Gibson Paf's'. They are the benchmark by which everything else judged. The good thing about the makers above is that they should be able to get you a sound like a gibson paf without the expense - and they can do it consistently which gibson never managed back then. when buying a real paf (if you can find and afford them) its actual sound is down to luck rather than quality of manufacturing I completely agree with WezV. Although PAF, T-tops were machine wound after the early-mid 60's, they are very inconsistant. The really early and expensive paf used a variety of magnets (aII-aV, even aVIII) up until 61-62 and that alone makes a severe tonal difference. Although current handwound pup models can be slightly different form each other, 95% of them by certain makers will sound really good, which is a matter of preference also. Handwound is always best.
