LesPaulKing Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 I've got an '85 Les Paul Standard. What pickups were likely installed from the factory? Many thanks, LPG=d> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tazzboy Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 More like the Tim Shaw PAF Pickups since the were installed between 1980 through 1987. Easy way to tell is to take one the pickups off and see if there is an Engrave patient # with an ink stamp number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibson Gear01 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 At that time, we had "Original Humbucking" and "Patent applied For" pickups. There are always exceptions to the rule, but I would estimate that you have "Original Humbucking" pickups in your Les Paul. They would not be what is commonly callled "Tim Shaw" pickups.
