Gibson '57 Classic Humbucker - 7.75k ohms

$0.00

The PAF — Patent Applied For — humbucker that Seth Lover designed for Gibson in 1955 is one of the most imitated and obsessed-over pickups in the history of the electric guitar. Warm, airy, and uncannily alive, original late-50s PAFs have been chased by players and collectors for decades, commanding prices that put them well out of reach for most. Gibson's '57 Classic is their definitive answer to that pursuit — a pickup wound to the original PAF specs using a single conductor lead, Alnico II magnets, and aged covered bobbins that bring the spirit and character of those golden-era pickups into the present. At 7.75k ohms, this sits in the sweet spot of the original output range: clear and glassy when played clean, harmonically lush and singing when pushed, with a three-dimensional presence that cheaper pickups simply can't replicate. A genuine Gibson pickup, built the way they used to build them. This example is in excellent condition.
