The Leone
 
An overwound P.A.F. wrapped in felt, leather, and a hint of desert grit—that’s the soul of The Leone Neck.
Born as Pariah Pickups’ first dedicated neck model, The Leone never intended to stay tied to one post. It carries the calm swagger of an outlaw who lives by his own rules.
 
Voiced as a “sweeter-than-sweet” PAF, The Leone delivers a smooth, balanced response with the soft nuance of a whistle in the wind drifting across an empty frontier. Cleans roll out warm and expressive; push it into overdrive and it keeps its composure with the steady hand of a seasoned gunslinger—never harsh, never hurried.
 
But here’s where The Leone shows its true outlaw nature:
Drop it in the bridge and it transforms from gentle storyteller to sharp-eyed troublemaker.
Its overwound coils and natural upper-mid lift turn into refined bite and articulate punch—more precision rifle than scattergun. It doesn’t rely on brute strength; it wins through character and control.
 
And while The Leone will ride alongside any Pariah bridge humbucker, pairing it with the Blackheart summons a kind of tonal Voodoo—dark, smoky, and harmonically charged.
Two outlaws. Same trail. Same trouble.
A match born far past the edge of town.
