SheptoneHeartbreaker PAF Style Humbucker Set
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Heartbreaker pairs a covered neck humbucker with an uncovered bridge humbucker, drawing on the Jimmy Page-inspired ‘Zep II’ direction described for the set. The neck’s German nickel-silver cover is specified for transparent tone, while the bridge follows the uncovered format noted in the product details. A documented blend starts in the middle position with neck volume at 10 and bridge volume brought in from 6–7. Because winding follows turn count and tension, resistance differs between individual sets.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Dialing the supplied middle-position blend: neck volume at 10, bridge volume brought in from 6–7.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who require a covered bridge pickup; the bridge pickup is supplied without a cover.

Detail 02
Variable resistance
