HAND AGED 59 PARTS HUMBUCKER PICKUP COVER, PAF STRING SPACING

Early PAF pickups, as used on the 1956 lapsteels and 1957 Les Paul Standard, had brushed stainless steel pickup covers (brushed to make them look nickel plated). This quickly changed to brass covers with a nickel plating. If the cover was gold, the brass was first nickel plated and then gold plated. Early PAFs also have four brass bobbin attachment screws, instead of steel screws. Also the early PAFs with stainless covers often did *not* have a PAF decal on the bottom (so some 1957 Gibson guitars will have unlabeled PAF pickups with brushed stainless covers).

Each of our nickel silver humbucker covers is hand aged. They look incredible and will give a 50's vintage look to your guitar.
