You’ll discover that details like vintage-correct spacing and shape have been kept in mind, helping you maintain the visual identity of your instrument. If you’re thinking about top-wrapping, a new tailpiece will allow you to experiment with that approach without risking scratching your vintage guitar’s original tailpiece, maintaining its 100 percent factory-spec integrity.
Additionally, the Historic Reissue Pickup Mounting Rings are meticulously crafted from precise scans of genuine vintage components, delivering unparalleled authenticity. Their organic contours and subtle geometric asymmetries capture the original vintage parts’ true spirit and character. This ethos applies to many of these items, bringing authentic options to the table, such as pickup covers and Historic Reissue Pole Piece Screws featuring the proper vintage-accurate shape, as featured on the the luxurious Gibson Pickup Shop 1959 Humbucker™ Collector’s Edition Series 1 pickups.
