As you may know, we rework & upgrade fine Les Paul guitars on a regular basis. Often we remove all the “guts” out of a high-end Custom Shop ’59 Reissue so that we can install all of our Doyle Coils TRU-CLONES PAF parts, pickups, etc, etc. So if you are looking for some really great “drop in” Custom Shop upgrades for your upgrade project… Then this entire kit is just what you need. We recently removed all of these pickups and all electronics from a gorgeous 2020 Custom Shop Historic '59 Les Paul Reissue. Now they’re all here… and ready for you to install right into your guitar.
Here’s what you get:
- 2 Gibson Custom Shop Custombucker PAF Humbuckers VOS (with mounting screws & springs)
8.12K Bridge & 8.20k Neck ~ at 72 Degrees Fahrenheit
- Complete Control Harness – 2 Gibson Volume, 2 Gibson Tone 500K Pots, 2 Paper-in-Oil Bumblebee .022 Caps
- Vintage Switchcraft switch, vintage braided pushback wire, and jack
HERE’S GIBSON’S VERBIAGE:
The Gibson Custombucker is standard equipment on the Gibson Custom Shop’s Historic Reissue guitars and beloved by players worldwide for its legendary Patent Applied For tone. Years of research and testing by Gibson engineers resulted in a formula and process that replicates the sonic magic of the original Patent Applied For humbucker pickups from the 50s. Each Custombucker uses Alnico 3 magnets for a warm, sweet tone that accurately delivers the sonic characteristics of those highly cherished early humbuckers. Like the original Patent Applied For humbuckers, the Custombucker uses 42 AWG wire and unbalanced coils that are left unpotted for a historically accurate pickup that will please even the most discriminating player.
- Position: Any (Set of Two)
- Magnets: Alnico 3
- Wiring: 2-Conductor
- Covers: Nickel
- Unpotted
- Average DC Resistance: 8K
- Details: Historically accurate Patent Applied For pickup set replica with unbalanced coils and a sweet, warm tone.

### ⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTE ON FITMENT:
Because vintage and Custom Shop Historic Reissue Les Pauls feature a thinner maple top carve, these factory pots are **SHORT SHAFT**. Please ensure your guitar accepts short-shaft pots before purchasing (Perfect for Gibson Historics, Memphis, Heritage, and vintage-spec builds; standard USA Les Paul Traditionals/Standards usually require long-shaft).
