PAF SHOWDOWN! | Which Nails It? (OX4 vs SD PG/HD59)

In this video I compare two boutique PAF pickup offerings from OX4 and Stephen Design. Are high end PAF pickup upgrades worth it? I play several sound comparisons, talk about what that PAF sound is, and share my perspective on these pickups. Let me know which you prefer? I audition both sets of PAFs with a Bartlett Retrospec. It is close in materials and construction to a 1959 burst but with its own unique body shape. It's a great guitar to action these PAF replicas! For the Stephen Design pickups, I'm using the Peter Green Neck and HD59 Bridge. Happy to answer any questions in the comments.
