These are probably one of the few vintage correct replica`s of an early 60s Firebird pickup – built to deliver.

2.94″ / 74.6 mm between the centers of the 2 mounting holes.

Real vintage Gibson Firebird pickup had a special construction – a set of thin steel plates.

These hard-to-find plates contribute to the distinctive biting tone of a vintage Firebird guitar.

The plates are hidden inside the pickup – and NONE of the new production pickups has these.

Larger steel plate is under the bobbins, it measures 1-15/16″ x 7/8″ (49.21mm x 22.23mm) Thickness: 0.015″
