Gibson

Humbucker pickup for bridge position of electric guitar that uses slightly over-wound balanced coils like the original Gibson PAFs of the late 1950s, but accidentally received a few additional turns of wire. Since their introduction in the late 1950s, Gibson’s famous ''Patent Applied For'' humbuckers have been considered the ultimate pickup because of their smooth, velvety tone. They are the perfect bridge-position companion to the Gibson ’57 Classic, delivering just a little more of ''the sweet stuff'' without sacrificing any of the rich vintage tone. Each humbucker features the same enamel-like coated wiring, Alnico II magnet and maple spacers as in the original models, achieving a creamy, smooth output that sounds rich and full whether they are being played clean or overdriven. The pickup is so authentic that it even carries the original ''Patent Applied For'' decal on the base plate. It comes with braided, two-conductor wiring and is fully wax potted to eliminate any chance of microphonic feedback. Output: 8.3. Gold cover.
