Part of Gibson Gear's Burstbucker series, the Type 2 aims to capture the spirit of 1950s "PAF" humbuckers. Its voicing emphasizes musicality, transparency, and harmonic richness, while remaining easy to integrate into a wide range of guitars and amplifiers.
For guitarists seeking a lively vintage sound, responsive to playing nuances and suited for blues, classic rock, and modern rock styles. It is ideal for those wanting an organic-sounding humbucker capable of cleaning up with the volume knob without losing clarity.
The Burstbucker Type 2 is a dual-coil pickup with Alnico II magnets that effectively cancels noise while preserving attack detail. Its midrange presence ensures excellent mix clarity, while the highs remain smooth and never harsh. Its design facilitates mounting and pairing with overdrive pedals or a driven amp, delivering singing sustain and full dynamic control.
