Gibson L6-S Deluxe Pickup Rings 1970s - Black

These are original 1970s Gibson L6-S Deluxe pickup rings — the correct black pentagon-shaped mounting rings that belong to the Deluxe version of the L6-S. If you're restoring one of the roughly 3,500 Deluxe models produced between 1974 and 1979, these are the pieces that are genuinely difficult to source. The L6-S Deluxe used a specific ring profile to accommodate its "Tar Back" Super Humbucker pickups, which featured a distinctive three-screw adjustment system rather than the more common four-screw arrangement. The pentagon shape isn't just cosmetic — it's a functional and period-correct part of the Deluxe's hardware ecosystem, and getting it wrong is immediately obvious to anyone who knows the guitar.

These rings are being sold as old-stock 1970s Gibson parts. Condition is consistent with age and storage — appropriate for use on a period instrument. If you have an L6-S Deluxe that needs correct mounting rings, this is the kind of part you rarely see come up separately. A solid find for the restorer or the collector looking to return their Deluxe to proper spec.
