What players and reviewers say

On the Bare Knuckle PAT Pend '63 Veneer Board

This is still very much a pre CBS sound, but it reflects a period when Fender single coils begin to gain a little more authority in the mids and low end.

The bridge pickup cuts through with authority, while the neck pickup delivers thick lead tones that never become muddy.
