A versatile blend of P.A.F. humbucker and Filtertron rockabilly tone. TV Jones started with their famous Classic Gretsch-repro pickup, added extra-tall bobbins to the bridge model for more standard-gauge coil windings, and overwound the neck model. The result: fatter, darker and hotter sound. Used by Billy Gibbons!
Good news! They're supplied with custom-fitted Gibson® mounting rings, so you can easily swap out your stock humbuckers.

Power'Tron pickups are humbuckers that feature two rows of adjustable polepieces, in bridge and neck position spacings. Original 1/4"-thick Gretsch Alnico Filtertron magnets were carefully analyzed and reproduced. Each pickup is wax potted to help eliminate microphonic feedback, and has a 4-conductor shielded wire. Mounting screws and springs, mounting ring, and installation instructions are included. Neck model 5.0K ohms, bridge model 7.8K ohms. David Lee of the Legendary Shack Shakers has a set of Power'Trons in his Gretsch White Falcon.
The Power'Tron Plus is used by Billy Gibbons. It's a special bridge position variation—the standard gauge coil wire is overwound on the extra-tall bobbins. The result: an even fatter, darker and hotter sound than the standard Power'Tron. 8.4K ohms.
