Capture the Tone of the Late ’50s!
The Gibson Accessories ’57 Classic Quick Connect humbucking pickup puts the true tone of a legendary Gibson pickup in your guitar. From soulful blues lead lines to raw rock ’n’ roll, this pickup’s sound has the best elements of vintage and modern eras. This pickup is an authentic re-creation of a late ’50s Gibson PAF humbucker — all the way down to the nickel slugs, maple spacers, nickel-plated pole pieces, and Alnico II magnets. PAF-style humbuckers are renowned at Sweetwater for their ability to provide full-range richness and sparkling articulation, all with a completely hum-free operation courtesy of their dual-coil construction and wax-potted design. What’s more, this ’57 Classic is ready for play in no time at all! Included Quick Connect wiring makes installation solderless, fast, and foolproof on compatible guitars.
