Brand New in Box Gibson 57 Classic Plus Humbucker

THE Classic Gibson Sound

The sound that made Gibson guitars famous and made the Golden Era Les Pauls the Holy Grail of all guitars were the "Patent Applied For" hum buckers. For the first few years of their production, the "Patent Applied For," or PAF pickups were wound using imprecise machines, resulting in pickups with slightly different output and tone. They were - and remain today - very desirable to players who want to mix and match and explore a complete spectrum of tonal possibilities. The 57 Classic Plus uses slightly overwound coils, just like the original PAFs of the Golden Era that accidentally received a few extra turns of wire. This pickup features enamel-like coated wiring, Alnico II magnet and maple spacers, just like the originals, resulting in a creamy, smooth output that sounds great clean or with distortion. Wired with two conductor braided wire and fully wax potted to eliminate unwanted feedback.
