Product Description
Gibson are serving up the goods to us metallers with the ELEV8 pickup series – their first ever Alnico 8 magnet designs paired with custom-gauge wiring, voiced with a tight low-end while still channelling plenty of power, brightness and clarity.
Tight and punchy for high-gain tones
These hot 10k humbuckers produce an outstanding tone for modern hard rock and metal, where sharp attack and focus is crucial when tuning low for heavily saturated distortion, or even loading up on gain in standard tuning for thrash and post hardcore styles. Articulation is the first thing to go when you're dialling in a thick high-gain tone and the ELEV8 pickup alleviates those concerns as you dig in for palm mutes and hit extended chords.
Expanded Tonal Flexibility
ELEV8 pickups are ready for coil splitting and advanced switching options to be installed thanks to 4-conductor wiring. This added versatility allows you to move seamlessly between the thicker humbucking tones and brighter dynamic sounds akin to a single-coil pickup without having to change guitars.
Gibson pickup design heritage
Gibson are steeped in pickup making history having created the legendary PAF humbuckers, and the American guitar company have explored a smorgasbord of tonal characteristics over the years with Alnico 2, 3 and 5 designs. This venture into Alnico 8 territory is a first for the legendary brand as they forge ahead into a contemporary musical style.
