Handcrafted custom guitar pickups & faithful recreations of vintage PAF's. Each coil is wound one at a time with dedication, passion and the finest materials. When it comes to amazing guitar tone... the devil is in the details

Tone Devil Classic PAF’s:

Voodoo:                     A4 - 7.6 / 8.2k

  • Matching unique coil shapes to neck and bridge pickups, differing from the Revelry and all other sets

  • An open and organic sounding set. Pleasant brightness, Airy and with plenty of harmonic content. Balanced when driven. A4 magnets give a more even response across the frequencies with the ability to wind down the tone control and create a mellow chirpiness

  • A classic A4 PAF set that covers a lot of ground. An array of tones can be created in the middle position with simple tweaks of the volume and tone controls


Revelry:                 A2 - 7.7 / 8.3k

  • Unique coil shapes to each pickup

  • A Warm expressive neck pickup with a tighter feel and faster pick attack than the Spellbound neck pickup

  • Authoritative bridge pickup with plenty of bark and crunch. Slightly spongey pick attack and great harmonics

  • Driven chords or searing leads, this classic A2 PAF set covers an array of rock tones


Spellbound:        A4 - 7.6 / 7.8k

  • If you like the tones of ‘Oscar’ from The Doug and Pat show, this is the set for you

  • Both coil shapes based off early PAFs and pre sticker PAFs. A4 is standard, or choose matching or any combination of A2, A4 and A5

  • Looser bottom end and a spongey pick attack, in turn creating great note bloom. Neck is articulate with enough drive on tap when wide open. Bridge has a crisp crunch in the mid range and sweet syrupy top end


Witchery:             A2 - 8.4 / 8.0k

  • A set inspired by Paul Kossoff’s stripped top Les Paul. Looking for live at Isle of Wight tones? This set will give you those fat singing tones on the neck and a bridge pickup that cuts through when needed

  • Neck pickup has a similar wind to the Revelry neck but with more oomph on tap. Cleans up nicely when rolling off the volume

  • Bridge pickup has an early PAF wind like the Spellbound coil shape, with a little more output available

  • Also available with a lower output Spellbound or Revelry neck wind. A2 is standard, or choose matching or any combination of A2, A4 and A5



Tone Devil Tribute PAF’s:

Mojo:             A4 - 8.3 / 8.5k

  • A pickup set based on the ‘Miss Pearly Gates’ 59’ Les Paul owned by Billy Gibbons. (Set only)

  • Great middle position to this set and really is the secret sauce with tweaks to the volume and tone controls

  • Although the original Pearly Gates guitar is shrouded in mystery and many pickup sets will get you close, this set is a Tone Devil favourite for nailing early ZZ Top recordings and beyond



Mythical:                 (Set only)

  • Stolen in mid 1966 from a rehearsal room in North West London, Eric Clapton’s 1960 Les Paul burst has never been seen since. What has been left behind however, has gained a mythical like status. The player, the Les Paul guitar and the Beano album is where it all began, sparking and igniting a craze for the Les Paul and ‘that sound’ that would sweep the nation

  • Matching coil shapes to bridge and neck pickups, both with custom long A5 magnets (also available in A2 if preferred). Comes standard with double white neck bobbins and double black bridge bobbins

  • A tighter sounding pickup set. Fast pick attack. Breaking treble and cut to the tone. Bass is firm and not as loose as the Spellbound or Voodoo sets. Hours have been spent listening and comparing to the Beano recordings and this Tone Devil set allows you to tap into that mythical sound


Black Magic:           (Set only) 

  • Based on the famous ‘Greeny’ Les Paul owned by Peter Green. This set has a custom wound neck pickup with one coil wound with Heavy Formvar wire (as per the alleged Sam Li repair). Middle position is out of phase just like Greeny

  • Countless hours have gone into experimenting and testing coils and magnets to get all three positions just right. The Black Magic set not only captures the sublime out of phase tones of the original Greeny, the neck and bridge also sound phenomenal, unleashing classic PAF tones



Zoso:                   (Set only)

  • A pickup set based on Jimmy Pages #1 59’ Les Paul, acquired from Joe Walsh in 1969

  • A very powerful neck pickup and low output bridge pickup (under 8k) recreate the unique, and formidable middle position synonymous with Jimmy Page

  • During 1972 the bridge pickup of JP’s LP became faulty and was changed out to a T Top pickup. This set comes in two options, pre 72’ & post 72’ (but before the changes to Seymour Duncan pickups in the mid 80’s). The pre 72’ has a PAF style bridge pickup under 8k with a custom long A5 magnet and the post 72’ has a T Top style wind (also under 8k) using poly coated copper wire and a short A5 magnet. The PAF neck pickup stays the same for both sets. Either set, you choose whether to rock out Royal Albert Hall style or Madison Square Garden style! 


6Sixty6               (Set only)  

  • A pickup set based on the legendary ‘The Beast’ 59’ Les Paul owned by Bernie Marsden

  • While Bernie Marsden was still with us, Tone Devil set about to recreate the tones of this legendary guitar. Many hours have been spent listening to Bernie play during his interviews and comparing winds and magnets

  • Neck pickup is very bridge pickup sounding, and in BM’s own words “goes from a whisper to a scream”. The bridge pickup has a throaty mid range with plenty of bark and bite. A vast amount of tones can be had tweaking the volume & tone controls and pickup selector
