Gibson 57′ Classic Plus Humbucker Pickup PU57+DBGC2 – Double Black / Gold Cover Price $169

Fatter, meatier tone with more drive and attack. The Burstbucker™ Pro humbucker™ enhances the vintage “edge” of Gibson’s popular Burstbucker pickups with the added feature of an Alnico 5 magnet. The Burstbucker Pro’s characteristic sweet harmonic complexity and crystalline clarity derive from its slightly unbalanced coil windings. Alnico 5 magnets are used in place of the traditional Alnico 2, yielding a fatter, meatier tone with more drive and attack, providing classic Gibson Patent Applied For tone with a hint of attitude. Wax potting keeps things quiet even with a high-gain rig.
