identifying p/u's


Roach

Recommended Posts

Lets just say I walk into a shop looking for a replacement p/u thats used and the guy gives me a drawer full of gibson humbuckers and tells me pick what i want and he has no clue what is what... How do I know whats what? Even a 498t and a 490r look exactly the same. I have a 57 too with no identifying mark at all except the gibson name

Ha, he told you to pick whatever and you didn't know what to take? rotfl.

 

He might have had some 59 PAFs in there!!! "ya right" [biggrin]

 

the senario was hypothetical, the question is how to identify what pick up is what with all the models of gibson humbuckers, once they are outside of the guitar absent any packaging
