Title: Gold finish PAFs?
Post by: Joesasser on March 21, 2013, 04:39:48 PM
Are any of the PAF style pups available in a gold finish? I'm considering one of the new 335-Studios, and would prefer gold finish.

Thanks,
Joe

Gold finished covers are available. You can even have them etched!

All the humbuckers are available in gold covers, apart from the Black Hawks.  :)

I must admit I didn't know there was a 335 Studio model!

Yep! We can age them too if you want a vintage look!

Oh excellent! That's cool. I've got it narrowed down to 2 different sets, may end up with a mix-n-match set. Definitely will go for the aged look for sure.

Thanks for the info.

It's coming. Was announced at NAMM in January. Available in black or blue (why they aren't doing a wine red version I don't know). It's a single pickup model, and I'm planning on modding mine out to 345 type specs.

Seems like a no brainer entry into proper 335 territory.

Ah, found it.  Along the lines of the Tom DeLonge model.  I must admit I was expecting more of a stripped down 335 with unbound neck, uncovered pickups etc, I wasn't expecting a single pickup guitar. 

I'm not keen on it, to be honest....
