From 1966-1979, Gibson humbucker™ coil forms were manufactured with a “T” on the top of the pickup, earning them the nickname “T-Top.” This “T” marking assisted the pickup assemblers with confirming the correct orientation of the bobbins during production. Gibson T-Tops are known for their brighter, tighter, and more aggressive tone compared to the original late 50s Patent Applied For pickups. Artists such as Chuck Berry, B.B. King, Pete Townshend, Angus Young, Peter Frampton, Nancy Wilson, Randy Rhoads, Mick Ronson, Tommi Iommi, and many more are known to have used original Gibson T-Tops, helping to cement the T-Top as an iconic Gibson pickup.
The new Gibson Pickup Shop 1968 T-Top Reissue humbucker is faithful to the Gibson T-Tops produced from 1966 to 1979. Using Alnico 5 magnets and period-correct winding specifications, the Pickup Shop has recreated not only the look of the original T-Tops but also the coveted tone. As vintage Gibson T-Tops have become collectible, the 1968 T-Top Reissue will satisfy the needs of the guitarist seeking the original look and sound of a vintage T-Top without the vintage price.

The Gibson Patent Applied For humbucker™ pickups from the 1950s are considered by many musicians to be the “holy grail” of vintage electric guitar pickups. Among them, the unique set that was installed in the legendary “Greeny” Les Paul™ are some of the most famous. The new Greenybucker set is instantly recognizable from a sonic perspective; their distinctive sound is partially from the out-of-phase middle switch position due to the neck pickup’s reverse magnetic polarity. The Greenybucker pickup set was developed with input from Greeny’s current owner, Kirk Hammett, and with specifications taken from the actual Patent Applied For humbucker pickups on that world-renowned guitar, including asymmetrical coil windings and unpolished Alnico 2 magnets.

First introduced in the early 1950s, Gibson's legendary P-90 single coil pickup produced a raw, powerful tone that helped define the blues and rock and roll in their formative years. Today, the P-90's brilliant tone is still considered a favorite among many top musicians. Now the P-90 is available in a full-range under-wound version that delivers a bit less output than a standard P-90 but with a bright tone that remains clear at any volume, with clearly defined overtones rich in harmonics, and with less dampening of string vibrations. It features two-conductor wiring and is fully wax potted to eliminate any chance of unwanted microphonic feedback.
Position: Any
Magnet: Alnico 3
Wiring: 2-Conductor
Cover: Black Dogear
Wax Potted
Average DC Resistance: 7.2k
Details: Full-range single coil that sounds clear and bright at any volume; pairs perfectly with P-90 DC and traditional P-90s
