Capture the Tone of the Late ’50s!
The Gibson Accessories ’57 Classic humbucking pickup puts the true tone of a legendary Gibson pickup in your guitar. 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. Just like the original PAF pickups, ’57 Classics can be used in both the neck and bridge position of any humbucker-equipped guitar. From soulful blues lead lines to raw rock ’n’ roll, the Gibson Accessories ’57 Classic humbucking pickup merges the best elements of both vintage tone and modern construction.
