Very light used Seymour Duncan Retrospec'd Antiquity neck position humbucker. untarnished and non aged nickel cover and is complete with springs, mountings screws and one contoured black shallow profile HB pickup mounting ring for the neck position slot.
Made to sound like a 1950s humbucker, this pickup has a smooth, warm neck tone with a sweetness that only an Antiquity can deliver. The Antiquity neck humbucker delivers an articulate, yet mellow tone that results from a perfectly balanced frequency response that combines a soft, sweet treble attack with a warm, full sounding low-end. The custom aged Alnico 2 bar magnet creates an airy openness to the top-end that gives chords clarity and articulation, while the vintage output coils really bring out the rich harmonic content. Single notes have a beautiful singing quality with just the right amount of treble emphasis.
The fine folks at Seymour Duncan have great care by making their Antiquities collection. All hand built in the Duncan Custom Shop the way Seth Lover did in 1955. The mold they use for their butyrate bobbins was created by the same factory that built the original P.A.F. mold for Gibson. Other key features include Duncans specially manufactured 42AWG plain enamel mag wire, nickel silver cover, 2.5-inch alnico 2 bar magnet, custom machined metal spacer and maple spacer, single conductor push-back braided lead wire, and nickel silver bottom plate with long mounting legs.
Staying true to the original Gibson P.A.F., these humbuckers are not wax potted which takes you right to the edge of harmonic breakup. For that unmistakable vintage mojo, Seymour Duncan has wound every Antiquity series humbucker on Seymours original Leesona winding machine from the early Gibson factory in Kalamazoo, MI. Bottom plates and bar magnets are all signed by Seymour to guarantee that you are getting an original Seymour Duncan Antiquity.
