Title: Brightness of 36th PAF vs Norton?
Post by: Matt_B on July 15, 2015, 08:54:54 PM

Can anyone share their experience with the brightness of the 36th PAF bridge compared to the Norton? I normally run the PAF with a 500k volume and no tone control and also have few guitars with the Tone Zone as well. I'm thinking about running a Norton as a compromise between the two.

I'm not 100% sure if it's actually a compromise of the two but I can see it being a nice fit for what you're looking for. It's pretty bright with a bit of a mid spike. As much as I like the PAF 36th bridge, I do personally like the Norton better. I typically run 500k or 550k pots without a tone pot (or if the guitar has one, it's disconnected).
