The Gibson Custombucker pickup set delivers a meticulously engineered recreation of the iconic late-1950s humbucker design, renowned for its complex harmonic character and expressive response. Developed through extensive research by Gibson engineers, the Custombucker captures the distinct tone profile of the original Patent Applied For pickups with a high level of historical accuracy.

Each Custombucker is built around Alnico 3 magnets, offering a sweet, warm tonal foundation with rounded highs and balanced midrange clarity. The pickups are wound with 42 AWG wire and feature unbalanced coils to replicate the natural asymmetry found in vintage units.

These pickups are unpotted, just like the originals, preserving the raw interaction between coil windings and magnetics. The result is enhanced sensitivity and touch dynamics, particularly valued in low- to medium-gain setups. True Historic nickel covers and double black bobbins complete the vintage-correct construction.

The Gibson Custombucker is a preferred choice for players seeking period-correct PAF tones in modern instruments or restoring the sonic integrity of vintage-inspired builds.
