SET OF HAND AGED PAF HUMBUCKER PICKUP COVERS, MODERN 49/52 mm 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).

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

- nickel silver covers

- modern string spacing (1-15/16", 49,21 mm for the neck position and 2-1/16'', 52 mm for the bridge)

- each cover hand aged

- each set is hand numbered

They look like removed from an old Les Paul that served for hours of live gigs!
