1984 is a tribute to 80s/90s metal. Imagine a hand-wound Super Distortion pickup where you've replaced the ceramic magnet with the Alnico 2 magnet from an old PAF. That's exactly what EVH did, among the many experiments and innovations we owe them. And that's what I'm offering you here. The result is a powerful, woody, and full-bodied pickup ready to make your 5150 head roar. 🙂 That's for the bridge pickup. For the neck pickup, the recipe is more complex: a full-bodied PAF-style pickup equipped with an Alnico 5 magnet. The result is a set that's comfortable in all styles of modern rock, from the late 70s to the early 90s metal, including the heavy metal of the 80s.
