New from the Gibson Pickup Shop, the 1959 Humbucker Collector’s Edition Series 3 pickups now enhanced with Murphy Lab aging and distinctive Double Vintage White bobbins. Gibson’s original “Patent Applied For” humbucker pickups from the 1950s are considered the holy grail of humbucking pickup tone. They are some of the most highly valued vintage pickups on the used market—when you can find someone willing to part with theirs. Now, using a combination of 3D scanning, scientific analysis, reverse engineering of original examples from the late 1950s, and specifications from the Gibson archives, the Gibson Pickup Shop has developed the most accurate recreations of these acclaimed pickups ever made. These new pickups will be limited to only 1,000 sets, each individually serialized with 1959-style numbering. Available exclusively from Gibson.
