Classic Rock Outlaw - Transform any Les Paul style guitar with vintage mojo. Pearly Gates add snarl and growl to the sweet heavenly tone of a vintage P.A.F. The Pearly Gates pickups emphasize the midrange more than typical P.A.F. humbuckers from that time, providing a uniquely tailored tone when you play.
Billy Gibbons' Tone - Recreate that iconic '59 Les Paul sound. Seymour discovered Billy’s bridge pickup had slightly more output than most P.A.F.s, which helped to give it the extra drive that makes this pickup so special. It really has a growl all its own and will help to bring any humbucker-equipped instrument to life.
Growl and Drive - Features an alnico 2 bar magnet, helping bring focus and life to the high-ends, while still providing a unique midrange for that classic growl and Texas sizzle.
Extra Drive and Output - Discovering Billy's bridge pickup had higher output than typical P.A.F.s, Seymour unlocked the extra drive that makes this pickup truly special. Every Pearly Gates is wound on Seymour's original Leesona winding machine from the early Gibson factory in Kalamazoo, MI.
Made in the USA - Hand built in our factory in Santa Barbara, CA, the Pearly Gates vintage output humbucker pickups use an alnico 2 bar magnet, nickel silver bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and are vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance.
The Pearly Gates neck captures all the mojo of the original neck pickup from Billy Gibbons' 1959 Les Paul. It is a PAF with a unique tonal character, and more midrange than typical humbuckers from that time. The result is a neck pickup that cuts through with stronger tailored midst, but still has the open and airy treble attack of the alnico 2 bar magnet. Combined with a warm, spongy low end, this pickup is great for both rhythm and lead playing.
