FredMonteiro Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 Hello guys, I'm using Google's translator. I am buying a used 490t pickup. The seller told me that he is sure that it is the 490t, he said it has a T (treble) on the base, and has a low DC resistance (around 8 kohms). If I'm not mistaken, there are only two Gibson pickups with DC resistance of around 8 kohms. They are the 57 Classic (and variants) and the 490t, but these two pickups are different at the back. In other words, I conclude that the pickup that I am going to buy is really the 490t. What do you say? See the picture from the pickup that I will buy.

Sgt. Pepper Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 8k ohms sounds about right. They came in my BB King and I loved em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi friend, it's not 8k. 8k is what the seller said. I measured it here and the result is 7.6k. Is this right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
