Over-wound for Even More Power
The collaboration between TV Jones and Billy Gibbons resulted in the development of the Power’Tron Plus. The desire was to create a Filter’Tron-sized pickup with a stronger midrange presence and higher output, while still retaining the famous sparkle and bass-note clarity of our TV Classic!
Bridge: The Power'Tron Plus bridge model was designed with more magnet wire to resemble a hotter Gibson PAF Humbucker (in the 8.5k DCR range) while still retaining the core Filter'Tron™ characteristics. It has more output and natural full midrange. The lows are tighter and more defined than a traditional Humbucker.
DC Resistance: 8.5K | Inductance: 5.25H
Tone/Characteristic:
Increased midrange with tighter, more defined low-end. More punch, slightly darker with a hint of sparkle. Good string to string separation.
