Gibson '57 Classic Underwound Pickup; Double Classic White

The ’57 Classic Underwound was created to provide a simple solution for players with naturally darker-sounding guitars and for those who also enjoy a brighter tone. Designed primarily for the rhythm position, it pairs perfectly with a regular ’57 Classic in the treble position and delivers clarity, balance, and excellent dynamic range. Made to the same specifications as the original Patent Applied For humbucker pickups but with fewer winds, the ’57 Classic Underwound uses Alnico 2 magnets, nickel-plated pole pieces, nickel slugs, maple spacers, and vintage-style, two-conductor braided wiring. The ’57 Classic Underwound features balanced coils for a smooth, creamy tone and excellent hum cancellation. They are also wax-potted to remove all internal air space and any chance of microphonic feedback.
