Gibson Custombucker (Double Black, True Historic Nickel Cover, 2-Conductor, Unpotted, Alnico 3, 8K)

Beautiful PAF pickup from Gibson!

The Gibson Custombucker is standard equipment on the Gibson Custom Shop's Historic Reissue guitars and beloved by guitarists worldwide for its legendary Patent Applied For tone. Years of research and testing by Gibson engineers resulted in a formula and process that reproduces the sonic magic of the original Patent Applied For humbucker™ pickups from the 1950s. Each Custombucker uses Alnico 3 magnets for a warm, sweet tone that accurately delivers the sonic characteristics of those cherished early humbuckers. Like the original Patent Applied For humbuckers, the Custombucker uses 42 AWG wire and unbalanced coils that are not cast. This creates a historically accurate element that will please even the most demanding guitarist.
