Steve P Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Can someone tell me if the 2007 61 Reissue came with a 57 classic PLUS at the bridge?...or a regular 57 classic...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobB Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Stock pick-ups would be regular '57 Classic in both positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve P Posted May 5, 2011 Author Share Posted May 5, 2011 Stock pick-ups would be regular '57 Classic in both positions. Thanks. The 61Reissue page on the Gibson site talks about the Classic Plus? The ’57 Classic and ’57 Classic Plus pickups are the result of Gibson’s drive to capture and recreate this renowned characteristic. Introduced in 1992, the ’57 Classic provides warm, full tone with a balanced response, packing that classic Gibson PAF humbucker crunch. The ’57 Classic Plus is the perfect bridge-position companion to the ’57 Classic, inspired by those original PAFs that received a few extra turns of wire. Both are made by Gibson to the exact same specs as the original PAFs, including Alnico II magnets, nickel-plated pole pieces, nickel slugs, maple spacers, and vintage-style, two-conductor braided wiring.

I saw the same mention on the site and agree; it's confusing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
