Spellbound
The Spellbound sets are based off early PAFs - a perfect marriage of low wind and unique coil shape. Articulate, open and organic. Looser bottom end and softer pick attack, in turn creating luscious harmonic content and note bloom
For SG owners that want that classic raunchy SG guitar tone - Tone Devil recommends the Spellbound 58’ in matching A2, or A2 / A5 combination. For a late 60’s T-Top type tone, go for the 57’ standard option or A2 / A5 combination

Magnet Info
Magnet Info
A2: Saturated sounding tone. Bite. Harmonic content & pick dynamics, pronounced mid range crunch, creamy highs and loose-ish percussive lows
A3: Smoother output. Syrupy notes & bends, sweetness to the highs, thick midrange & broad full lows. Tonally similar to A5 with the crunch of A2. With the lowest gauss of all magnets, can take on a single coil like quality when rolling off volume
A4: Balanced frequency response. Overall brighter than other magnets. Even midrange growl, sparkly highs & tight lows. Chirpy tones when rolling off volume. Drier tone than A2
A5: Authority & punch. Full bottom end, crisp crunch in the mid range, glassy highs and syrupy note bends. Hollow woody quality when rolling off tone
