 Scotty Moore Alnico V
Gibson asked Lover, who worked for Gibson in its RandD and electronics department, to come up with a more powerful pickup that more closely resembled the D'Armond single coil pickup that was popular at that time (D'Armonds were most notably used on the Gretsch duo jet line and other Gretsch electrics).
Rather than have a long rectangular magnet at the core of the pickup on which metal polepieces (typically screws) are attached and consequently magnetized, Lover designed this pickup with long alnico V magnets operating as the polepieces.
Seth Lover has commented that the reason these pickups never became too popular with players is because most players have a tendency to adjust the height of polepieces fairly close to the strings.

 Vintage-Style Pickups Explored: Part 2 – PAF Humbuckers into a Les Paul
The distortion characteristics through the Marshall with the Seth Lover were similar to the number 2 Burstbucker in smoothness, but without the added bottom end of the Gibson.
While the Antiquity was my personal favorite because of the even greater smoothness in distortion and softer mids largely due to the aging process, many may prefer the Seth Lover as it is closest to what a PAF design would be if you were able to buy a brand new one today.
The Seth Lover can be used comfortably within a range of music styles from rock to clean jazz and makes a fantastic PAF pickup choice.
