Revelry & Revelry MK
Revelry
The Revelry PAF’s are Tone Devils flagship set. A Witchery (or Spellbound) neck pairs with a unique coil design in the bridge. This wind retains some give in the pick attack, but also incorporates more definition, tighter lows and increased treble response. The neck pickup is perfect for players that like a little more oomph for solo-ing. Wide open it is open, syrupy & sings! backed off it is full of expression, warmth and clarity. For players that like a more modern arrangement a Spellbound pickup is also available in 7.8k. A2 is standard, projecting midrange crunch, a more saturated tone, creamy highs and percussive lows. Available in A2, A4 or A5 in any configuration
NECK - ALNICO II - 8.3k +/- (or 7.8k)
BRIDGE - ALNICO II - 8.4k +/-
Available in A2, A4 or A5 in any configuration
Revelry MK
The MK Ultra set takes inspiration from the MK Burst currently owned by Marcus King. Building on the Revelry platform these PAFs unleash the unmistakable tones of the MK Burst. A throaty, gutsy & gritty neck that cleans up beautifully, pairs with a bridge capable of expressive cleans and a crunchy snarly growl. Like the Empyreans, these are extremely versatile and can cover a lot of classic guitar tones (without choosing a specific tribute set). Comes with Tone Devils choice of magnets and D.C
