Replica of the 1959 PAF Pickup
The version I offer is the one with aged nickle covers - like Knopfler's... (when comparing prices note that the version without cover is cheaper). Optional you can get them with a gold-plated cover.
Here some info from the manufacturer:
The "Häussel-1959" model gives you that legendary old PAF sound, still sought-after by professionals the world over. Manufactured with original wire, original-sized magnets and our optimally-matched winding, this pickup will captivate you with its silky, 'woody-warm' sound - on chord work, the sound of each string is clearly defined, while the overall sound is breezy and slightly nasal, but never muddy. The extremely agreeable, sweet highs make each tone a desirable delicacy for sound gourmets, while solos become a symphony of soaring sonic satisfaction. The 1959 model 'smacks' beautifully each time you strike the strings, gliding effortlessly into harmonic overtones and feedback. This is a pickup with a powerful 'hook' -and perfect if you want to get that truly authentic PAF sound.
