Gibson ’57 Classic Humbucker Neck/Bridge – Nickel

Gibson ’57 Classic Humbucker Pickup – Nickel Cover, Alnico 2, 2-Conductor, Wax Potted (Used)

Looking for that legendary Gibson tone with true vintage character? The Gibson ’57 Classic Humbucker delivers everything you want from a classic PAF-style pickup. Introduced in 1990, this model recreates the magic of late-‘50s humbuckers — all while offering the reliability modern players demand.

Right out of the gate, you’ll hear the warmth. The Alnico 2 magnet gives this pickup its signature smooth tone — rich lows, round highs, and detailed mids. Whether you’re playing clean jazz chords or driving a tube amp into creamy overdrive, the ‘57 Classic responds with depth and musicality.

Moreover, it’s built to vintage-correct specs. That includes nickel-plated pole pieces, nickel slugs, maple spacers, and vintage-style braided two-conductor wiring. Even better, this one comes with a stunning nickel cover that completes the vintage vibe. The look is just as classic as the sound.

Thanks to balanced coils, you get excellent hum cancelation and even string response. That means your leads cut through without harshness, and your chords stay tight and clear. Whether you’re installing this pickup in the neck or bridge, it delivers.

On top of that, the wax potting eliminates unwanted microphonic feedback. So you can turn up loud, hit the gain hard, and keep your tone under control. The average DC resistance is 8K, offering the sweet spot between output and dynamics.

From blues and jazz to vintage rock and early metal, the ‘57 Classic adds real Gibson character to any guitar.
