A FilterTron tailored for the Riff!

Designed as a tribute to the legendary playing of Malcolm Young, the Malcolm Y. captures the raw power of a PAF humbucker while retaining the vibrancy of a Filter'Tron.
With its PAF humbucker-style winding, denser than a classic Filter'Tron, this pickup delivers the uncompromising energy that made AC/DC's rhythm guitarist famous. More muscular and incisive than classic Filter'Trons, it's tailor-made for pure, no-nonsense riffs.

Sound / Character

The Malcolm Y. delivers a broad, edgy sound: a perfect blend of the vintage warmth of a classic PAF and the snappy attack of a late '50s Filter'Tron.
Its powerful bass and natural bite give riffs a solid foundation, while its crisp highs remain clear and dynamic, even at high volumes.
Plugged into a tube amp, it unleashes its full potential, ideal for those seeking a straightforward, racy, and taut tone—the very essence of Malcolm Young's style.

Perfect for Filter'Tron grain enthusiasts who want a more lively, massive response and an unstoppable stage presence.
