Classified as a \"USED\" item olny because it was purchased new by the past owner, and then traded in here to us at Music City. Never installed in a guitar and in 100% factory mint condition. Sticker dated April 4th of 2017 mounted on the rear of the pickup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the first few years of their production, Gibson’s famous “Patent Applied For” humbuckers were wound using imprecise machines, resulting in pickups with slightly different output and tone. They were – and remain today – as very desirable to players who want to mix and match and explore a complete spectrum of tonal possibilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ’57 Classic vintage style humbucker is the result of Gibson’s drive to capture and recreate this renowned characteristic. Introduced in 1990, the ’57 Classic provides warm, full tone with a balanced response, packing that classic Gibson PAF humbucker crunch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey are made to the exact same specs as the original PAFs, including Alnico II magnets, nickel-plated pole pieces, nickel slugs, maple spacers, and vintage-style, two-conductor braided wiring. The pickups are also wax potted to remove all internal air space and any chance of microphonic feedback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput: 7.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCan be used in either Bridge or Neck position depending on ones taste\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlnico II magnet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-Conductor Wiring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVintage Vibes with rich, warm tones and balanced coils.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eItem shown: Gibson ’57 Classic Humbucker Pickup – Gold\u003cbr\u003eModel #: PU57DBGC2\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gibson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50109769449709,"sku":"210000163814","price":169.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0085\/8118\/5613\/files\/d4jxwirlzbzzumbxnjae.jpg?v=1781557391","url":"https:\/\/musiccitycanada.com\/products\/gibson-57-classic-humbucking-pickup-gold-2017-never-installed-used","provider":"Music City Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
