They have been highly influential, with many imitations. The originals used a variety of magnet types, including Alnico 2 and Alnico 4. Regardless of which magnet type they have, they are some of the most highly valued vintage pickups on the used market – when you can find someone willing to part with theirs. Using a combination of 3D scanning, scientific analysis, reverse engineering of original examples from the late 1950s, and specifications from the Gibson archives, the Gibson Pickup Shop has developed the most accurate recreations of these acclaimed pickups ever made. Packaged in a high-quality Lifton™ presentation case, this Collector’s Edition Series 2 set features Zebra butyrate bobbins, Alnico 2 roughcast long magnets, vintage-accurate nickel covers, and Cream M69 mounting rings, with the covers masterfully aged by the artisans of the Murphy Lab. These exceptional pickups will be limited to only 1,000 sets, each individually serialized with 1959-style numbering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003ePosition: Both (Set of Two)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eMagnets: Alnico 2\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eWiring: 2-Conductor\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eCover: True Historic Nickel, Murphy Lab Aged\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eM69 Mounting Rings\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eZebra Butyrate Bobbins; Vintage White on the Slug Sides, Black on the Screw Sides\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnpotted\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eAverage DC Resistance: 8.7k (Treble), 7.8k (Rhythm)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e42 AWG plain enamel wire\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach individually serialized with 1959-style numbering\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eDetails: The first aftermarket Murphy Lab-aged release of the most historically accurate Patent Applied For replicas ever made, with unbalanced coils and a sweet, woody, loud, and present tone\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"First City","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68026447036565,"sku":"PU59S2ZBANC2-SET","price":69.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/8466\/4469\/files\/PU59S2ZBANC2-SET_set.webp?v=1792555004","url":"https:\/\/fairstore.shop\/products\/gibson-1959-humbucker-collector-s-edition-series-2","provider":"First City","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
