Gibson '57 Classic Underwound (Double black, Underwound, 2-conductor, Potted, 7.2k, Alnico 2)

Since their introduction in the 1950s, Gibson's famous "Patent Applied For" humbucker™ pickups have been considered the ultimate pickup because of their smooth, velvety tone. The '57 Classic Plus uses slightly overwound coils, exactly like the original Patent Applied For humbuckers of the late 1950s that accidentally received a few additional turns of wire. The balanced coils of the ’57 Classic Plus give them a warm, creamy tone. They are the perfect bridge-position companion to the '57 Classic, delivering just a little more of "the sweet stuff" without sacrificing any of the rich vintage tone.

The ’57 Classic Underwound is a Patent Applied For style humbucker™ that has balanced coils and delivers all the vintage vibe and character of the regular ’57 Classic™ in an under-wound version that has a clear, “chimey” tone with more clearly defined overtones and harmonics. The ’57 Classic Underwound is also wax potted to remove all internal air space and any chance of microphonic feedback.
