Gibson PAT No. Purple Wire Humbucker Set 1962-3 (on commission)

Identical to a short magnet PAF!

Introducing a rare find from the early 1960s: the Vintage Purple Wire Gibson PAT Number Humbuckers with Original Covers and a set of Mylar capacitors. This set delivers the tone you've been looking for.

Each pickup features the distinctive purple wire winding, synonymous with the holy grail of Humbucker tone. While these pickups bear the PAT Number sticker, they are essentially identical to the short magnet PAF pickups, celebrated for their rich, authentic tone.

Accompanying the set are a set of mylar caps and the original covers, bearing the marks of decades gone by. It's worth noting that we are uncertain about the tape around the bobbins. While it black-lights well and appears to have been in place for a significant period, its composition differs from the typical paper tape found on these pickups. Regardless, the wire is original, so is everything else. One of the lead wires was extended.

Whether you're a collector seeking an authentic piece of musical history or a musician in pursuit of classic tone, this vintage Purple Wire Gibson PAT Number Humbuckers set offers a genuine connection to the golden age of electric guitar craftsmanship. Not all sets sound the same, this one is definitely a keeper!
