A Burstbucker Designed to Recapture the 1960s Tone

Part of Gibson's Burstbucker lineage, the 60s Burstbucker Double Black aims for an authentically vintage output, with an organic response and an "old school" clarity. It is intended for guitarists who want to recapture the feel of humbuckers inspired by the PAF (Patent Applied For) : natural harmonic richness, a beautiful openness in the upper spectrum, and mids that "sing" without harshness.

For Which Guitarists and Guitars

This humbucker pickup is ideal if you are looking for a warm and expressive sound without sacrificing note-to-note definition. In the studio, it highlights right-hand nuances and guitar volume variations. On stage, it maintains excellent clarity, from blues to rock and jazz. It adapts very well to solid-body guitars as well as semi-hollow models that require a vintage-character humbucker capable of remaining musical both clean and overdriven.

Sound Character and Design: Controlled Power, Ultra-Sensitive Touch

The Gibson Gear 60s Burstbucker delivers controlled power : enough body to thicken an amp while retaining dynamic reserve to respond to light attacks as well as stronger playing. The Alnico II magnets provide warm lows, full mids, and silky highs, with a very "breathable" playing feel. Its humbucker design contributes to a reduced noise level, particularly appreciated with sustained crunch or denser saturation. The Double Black finish completes the package with a discreet and elegant presence, perfect for either vintage or modern setups.
