LesPaulKing Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Greetings...I'm new here. I bought a humbucker pickup back in 1966-1967. I don't remember what the guy said it was...I think he said it was a DeArmand or a DiMarzio...it may have been a Gibson. It has the black decal on the back with PATENT NO. 2737842 printed on it. How can I tell what it is and what value if any, it may have? Many thanks, LPK lrmars@aol.com#-o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibson Gear01 Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 It sounds like you have what is referred to as a Gibson "Patent Number" Pickup from the 60's. Can you post any pictures of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibson Gear01 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 That's a Gibson Pat# pickup, no doubt about it. It's a little hard to tell from the photos, but are the mounting feet square, or are the corners rounded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
