WHAT DOES IT SOUND LIKE?
"I always liked this pickup. I'll never forget a guy named Glenn Schwartz who played in the early James Gang and Pacific Gas & Electric. He had an old Epiphone Sheraton fitted with mini-humbuckers that got such a huge tone. With this pickup, I set out to capture that same tone. This pickup fits into the P-90 soapbar cover-style mounting ring and has adjustable pole pieces." Seymour W. Duncan
Classic Les Paul Deluxe vintage mini humbucker tone with rich midrange harmonics and an authentic ’60s growl in the bridge and that familiar sparkly mini humbucker tone with a slightly softened treble attack in the neck.
The Antiquity II Adjustable Mini Humbucker has a truly unique tonal character. Its midrange emphasis brings focus to the lows, and adds a gritty sweetness to the highs. Overdriven sounds break up nicely with a smooth, warm growl. Clean tones pop and ring with a zing that full-sized humbuckers struggle to match.
Each Antiquity II Mini Humbucker is hand built and aged to look and sound like the original. We use a hand-cut P90 soapbar cover-sized mounting ring, and these pickups mount to the guitar exactly like an original Les Paul Deluxe. Staying true to this type of ’50s-era Gibson and Epiphone pickups, these vintage mini humbuckers are not wax potted, which takes you right to the edge of harmonic breakup and sustaining feedback.
These can be used in any guitar with a Les Paul Deluxe or P90 pickup rout.
