That's really interesting. I'm actually wondering if someone just screwed up and the pickup was just mislabeled. Is there some way you could get the shop to let you see the back of the pickup to verify that it's a legit PAF Joe?

Sure I'll drop by next Saturday and take pictures at the whole thing. I'm really curious about this. I had a PAF joe on one of my strats before and wasn't satisfied with the pick attack, so I replaced one side of the coil with screws from another dimarzio pickup (it was from an illuminator if I recall correctly) result was it had a very small little bump on higher mids. pick attack was still dull tho.

btw, I bought gravity storm bridge + dark matter 2 neck.
