Gibson '57 Classic / '57 Classic Plus Set (Double Black Nickel Covers 2-conductor Potted Alnico 2)

Gibson '57 Classic / '57 Classic Plus Set (Double Black, Nickel Covers, 2-conductor, Potted, Alnico 2) This pickup set combines the '57 Classic and the '57 Classic Plus. The '57 Classic provides warm, full tone with a balanced response, packing that classic Gibson Patent Applied For humbucker™ crunch. They are made to the same specs as the originals, including Alnico 2 magnets, nickel-plated pole pieces, nickel slugs, maple spacers, and vintage-style, two-conductor braided wiring. The '57 Classic humbucker features balanced coils for a smoother, creamier tone and excellent hum cancelation. The '57 Classic Plus uses slightly overwound coils, exactly like the original Patent Applied For humbuckers of the late 1950s that accidentally received a few additional turns of wire. The balanced coils of the '57 Classic Plus give them a warm, creamy tone. They are the perfect bridge-position companion to the '57 Classic, delivering just a little more of "the sweet stuff" without sacrificing any of
