The Gibson 60s Burstbucker represents the classic Patent Applied For Humbucker as it was wound in the early sixties at the Gibson Facility in Kalamazoo, Michigan. For this, the dual coiler uses Alnico 5 magnets and two coils wound with classic 42 AWG winding wire, which feature slightly different winding counts and give the pickup its unique airy tonal character. The Gibson 60s Burstbucker comes furthermore with unwaxed coils and a classic two-wire connection cable.
