    No Expense Spared

    Serious guitarists choose Bloombuckers over other pickups because they deliver unmatched touch sensitivity, harmonic depth, and vintage-inspired warmth that mass-produced pickups simply can't replicate.

    Cheaper pickups are often machine-wound with low-quality materials, leading to harsh treble, weak mids, and a lack of dynamic response, making them feel dull and lifeless. 

    Bloombuckers, on the other hand, are meticulously hand-wound using proprietary techniques and premium components, ensuring a tone that is rich, responsive, and full of natural bloom—hence the name.

    They allow guitarists to fully express their playing style, with every nuance of pick attack and volume adjustment translating beautifully into the amp. For players who demand the best in tone and feel, Bloombuckers provide a level of musicality that cheap pickups simply can't match, making them an essential choice for serious musicians.

    Now you can have the same tone that the best players in Nashville use in their vintage Gibson's. 

    Tone that “Blooms” - Get Inspired.

    If you played a few humbucker equipped guitars from the 1950s, then you probably know what “Bloom” is all about.  If you have never experienced it, then you are really missing out.  Many people describe Bloom in different ways and others are at a loss for words when hearing and feeling it.  To our ears there is softness to the attack of each note followed a very interesting and complex harmonic content to the tone.  Then just as the note should fade away, it continues to sing and sustain its sweet voice. 

    Unlike our other P.A.F. designs, these pickups are not formulated with a certain style of music in mind.  The goal is to make the much sought-after vintage P.A.F. “Bloom” available to everyone.  This was a lofty goal and the design process has taken us years to master.  

    Pro Tested – On the Road & in the Studio

    We’ve heard a lot of people say that vintage Bloom is not possible with new pickups or new guitars, this set of amazing pickups has proved the nay-sayers wrong. Don’t take our word for it, just listen to what one of our Professional Beta-Testers has to say….

    Ford Thurston, a Nashville based guitarist is no stranger to the road, the studio or vintage P.A.F. tone. Ford has owned many vintage Gibson Guitars from the 1950’s including a Les Paul and a 1959 ES-335. He’s also owned several others Gibson’s from the 60’s. In addition, he has performed with Duane Allman’s 1957 Gold Top on more than one occasion while passing though Macon, GA.

    Ford Thurston knows vintage tone as well as anybody. He has been actively chasing it for his new guitars for a couple of decades. He has tried just about every expensive P.A.F. clone you can think of. According to him, most of the clones sound pretty good, but for the most part they sound like clones and are missing that vintage “Bloom”. Some are warm enough but lack dynamics, while others have dynamics but are a little harsh.  Ford says the Tone Specific Bloombuckers are among the best PAF type of pickup he has ever played.   

    Ford has A/B’ed the Bloombuckers in a newer Les Paul against a vintage 1959 Les Paul and walked away in disbelief as the Bloombuckers matched the 1959 Les Paul note for note, bend for bend, Bloom for Bloom.  He likes them so much he keeps his vintage guitars at home and goes to work with his newer Les Paul loaded with the Tone Specific Bloombuckers.

    Ford was so impressed that he recorded a demo of these pickups that you can watch in the video above.
