Gibson ELEV8 Plus Treble Double Black Nickel Cover Overview

The Gibson ELEV8 Plus Treble humbucker takes the Alnico 8-powered ELEV8 platform and pushes it into higher-output territory with an overwound 15k design. Built for the bridge position, the ELEV8 Plus combines Alnico 8 magnets with custom-gauge wire for a powerful, focused voice, tight bass response, and strong articulation under gain. It is specifically designed to pair with a standard ELEV8 in the neck position for a balanced modern high-output setup.

This version features double black bobbins beneath a nickel cover, wax-potted construction, and 4-conductor wiring. The 4-conductor design supports coil splitting and advanced switching options, extending the pickup beyond its full humbucking voice with access to brighter, more cutting sounds when paired with compatible controls.
