Product Description

Gibson’s original “Patent Applied For” humbucker™ pickups from the 1950s are considered the holy grail of humbucking pickup tone. They have been highly influential, with many imitations. The originals used a variety of magnet types, including Alnico 2, Alnico 3, and Alnico 4. Regardless of which magnet type they have, they are some of the most highly valued vintage pickups on the used market – when you can find someone willing to part with theirs. Using a combination of 3D scanning, scientific analysis, reverse engineering of original examples from the late 1950s, and specifications from the Gibson archives, the Gibson Pickup Shop has developed the most accurate recreations of these acclaimed pickups ever made. Packaged in a high-quality Lifton™ presentation case, this Collector’s Edition Series 3 set features Double Vintage White butyrate bobbins, Alnico 3 roughcast long magnets, vintage-accurate nickel covers, and yellowed Cream M69 mounting rings, with the silver-nickel covers, baseplates, screws, and springs masterfully aged by the artisans of the Murphy Lab. These exceptional pickups will be limited to only 1,000 sets, each individually serialized with 1959-style numbering.
