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.

Kick back and relax with solderless Quick Connect

The ’57 Classic Quick Connect comes equipped with Gibson’s Quick Connect connector, so it’s ready to drop into any Quick Connect–ready guitar you like. Gibson’s solderless Quick Connect system lets you replace pickups in seconds, making it easy for you to try out different tonal combinations with your favorite axe. If you want to learn more about the Quick Connect system, then call your Sweetwater Sales Engineer today.

Reviews

Pickup
The pick up is working great quick and easy installation just waiting on the other one to arrive so I can install it too. Great service and a great company to order from. Thank you Will.
Better than boutique
Gibson should put 57 classics in all their guitars. Replaced the pickups in my les paul studio. Great paf tone. With them being quick connect swapping them was a breeze.
Nice Upgrade
I bought these to replace the 490s on my Gibson SGJ. They sound cleaner at higher volumes and they look great. Super easy to switch out too.
