Gibson Burstbucker Type 1 Pickup Gold Cover
There was tremendous variation among those early hand-wound humbucking pickups. Employees would wind the bobbins “until they were full.” This was typically about 5,000 turns. The BurstBucker 1 is a little underwound, with medium classic out and it works well in both neck and bridge positions. This one has a gold plated pickup cover.
