The Gibson BurstBucker Type 1 pickup revives the legendary tone of the original “Patent Applied For” humbuckers from the Kalamazoo era. With its slightly underwound coils and Alnico II magnets, it delivers a sweet, vintage-style tone that shines in both bridge and neck positions. Its open, airy character and subtle high-end sparkle provide the perfect balance of warmth and bite, making it ideal for players seeking authentic Gibson tone and classic feel.
