First?

[edit]

The introduction says that the PAF was the first humbucking pickup, but then says that there were earlier ones. This needs to be clarified. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 20:57, 23 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Even with mention of the FilterTron, it's still wrong. The first humbucker was the Rickenbacker Multiple, featured on the Combo 800 model of guitar in 1953-4. The PAF was only #3. 173.228.54.18 (talk) 18:48, 29 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
That's interesting. I didn't know that, but Rickenbacker also invented the first solid guitar. They saw no future in it! --Deke42 (talk) 18:38, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Name change

[edit]

I changed the article name for accuracy. Technically, "PAF" is a DiMarzio pickup, while this article discusses Gibson's pickup, the P.A.F., so it should be named that way. Mbinebri (talk) 14:55, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
