A Detail That Makes All the Difference for a "Historic" Restoration
Often underestimated, pickup rings play a major role in a guitar's aesthetics. With the Gibson Historic Pickup Rings, you get the look of Gibson's historic 1950s instruments: consistent proportions, a vintage-typed cream shade, and a clean presentation around your humbuckers. This is the ideal solution to replace yellowed, cracked, or non-compliant parts while maintaining an authentic and neat appearance.
Simple Installation, Designed Adjustment for Neck and Bridge
This pack includes two distinct rings to respect the guitar's geometry: one ring dedicated to the neck pickup and another for the bridge pickup. The different heights accommodate the curvature and angle of the string plane, facilitating balanced pickup height adjustment to optimize your attack response, sustain, and dynamics. The included mounting screws allow for quick installation, whether for maintenance, restoration, or pickup replacement.
