I built something almost the same in the late eighties for myself. Walnut soloist body and rosewood warmoth neck HSH with metal surrounds only real difference was I used a Floyd ( it was the 80s).

A proper Superstrat, YES.

It was about time. I’ve been dancing around the idea of a Super Strat for a while now and the dates of the opening of the theater that I was using for inspiration line up pretty well with Super Strats, so it seemed like a natural fit.

I was a little worried about the PAF Pros with Walnut, but they seem to work together well!

I am in love with PAF Pro pickups!

I had never tried them before so it was a gamble, but I might have found my favorite humbuckers. They split so well!

Now I’m really thinking about trying a set in my LP

The great thing about a PP is it's never muddy or flubby.

Those are qualities I always want in humbuckers. I’m all about articulation and clarity.

These seem to be a perfect balance of those qualities without being too bright or harsh in any frequencies

After spending most of the weekend playing my JS6 (PAF Pro and FRED), I’m going to have to agree with you. I think these sit right in the sweet spot for an A5 humbucker IMO.

I did have to adjust my presets a little due to them being dialed in for a JB, but I’m really happy with the results. I may try something similar to the PAF Pros in my PRS.

DiMarzio gets a lot of shit for not being “booteek,” but they obviously know what they’re doing. Plus their matched sets just work great for the in-between tones.
