Product Description

Gibson 490T CC, Humbucker Pickup

Gibson counts the P490 pickups as modern classics, and that is also a great sound description for this well-known part of many modern Gibson guitars. The starting point was the legendary PAF (now available as Classic 57); this one has a bit more upper middle to make it more powerful. Still, with the Alnico 2 magnet, the typical singing sound is always guaranteed. The T version of the P490 has slightly more output power than the T, and is thus ideally suited for the bridge position.

Wonderful bell-like sounds without sludge - the P490 is not a screamer; he sings beauitufully! Comes in chrome-plated cap.

, The modern equivalent of the Classic 57, The 4-wire cable enables different switching versions, With Vintage alnico magnets, Characteristics: Singing lead sounds and powerful rhythm sounds, Colour: Chrome
