Gibson'57 Classic Plus Humbucker Pickup Gold
1/3
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Gold hardware look meets the '57 Classic Plus design: a humbucker with slightly overwound, balanced coils, an Alnico 2 magnet, and maple spacers. The result is described as warm, creamy, rich, and full, retaining its character through clean or overdriven playing. Gibson positions the Plus as the bridge companion to its '57 Classic. Braided two-conductor wiring and full wax potting are included, with the potting intended to eliminate microphonic feedback.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Matching a Gold-finished bridge pickup with a '57 Classic for a warm, creamy setup.
