Description
The Gibson Custombucker Plus takes everything players love about the standard Custombucker and dials it up a notch. It's still got that vintage-inspired voice, but with a bit more heat under the hood-ideal for players who want to keep the classic character but need a little more output for modern amps or heavier playing styles. Whether you're into classic rock, blues, or just looking for a more expressive PAF-style tone that pushes your rig a bit harder, the Plus version gets you there without losing that signature midrange sweetness.
It's built around Alnico 3 magnets, 42 AWG wire, and double black bobbins, with unbalanced coils and no potting-just like the originals. The average DC resistance of 8.6K gives it the extra bite and presence, while keeping it smooth and articulate. With a True Historic Gold cover and two-conductor wiring, it fits right into vintage-style setups. We've found it to be a solid upgrade for players who love PAF tone but want more punch without sacrificing clarity or nuance.
