Gibson 57 Classic Pickup

57 classic pickup on fender?

to refine an earlier question, i want to install a Gibson 57 Classic Humbucker in the neck position of my fender jaguar classic player HH, which has two fender enforcer humbuckers. Can i do this?

After reviewing some photos of the jag and the Gibson Humbucker Pickup,i see no problems in adding the pickup to your guitar.

also the spring loaded screws that adjust the pickup are pretty close to what gibson also uses.

Gibson Custom Les Paul Custom 3 Pickup Limited Edition Electric Guitar Pelham Blue $4998 The 1957 Les Paul 3-Pickup Custom is presented with all the appointments and legendary tone of the original and comes dressed in an alluring Pelham Blue finish. No detail has been overlooked, including a solid, non weight-relieved mahogany body with carved mahogany top. Vintage-style Kluson kidney tulip tuners are mounted in a straight line just as they were on the original. The 24 ¾-inch scale length neck is made from one solid piece of mahogany, and attached to the body using a long neck tenon—one of the Les Paul's more distinguishing characteristics of the 1950s. The neck has the Gibson '50s "C"-shaped neck profile and is topped by a 22-fret ebony fingerboard outfitted with block inlays matching the size and color of the originals. This unusual Custom has three pickups: two of Gibson's legendary Burstbucker 1 pickups in the neck and middle pickup position, and a BurstBucker 2 pickup in the bridge position. BurstBucker pickups deliver all the subtle variations of true, classic humbucker tone by using historically "unmatched" bobbin windings and Alnico II magnets. The BurstBucker 1 is slightly underwound and has a medium vintage output. The BurstBucker 2 is wound in the range of Gibson''s '57 Classic, with slightly hotter output than the BurstBucker 1. The original 1957 Les Paul Custom was the first Custom model to offer the Tune-O-Matic bridge and stopbar tailpiece and so does this edition. The 1957 Les Paul Custom is adorned with gold hardware and is framed with multi-ply white and black binding on both the top and back. The multi-bound headstock has a prominent five-piece split diamond inlay and the Gibson logo. Each guitar also comes with a Gibson Custom case and certificate of authenticity.

Gibson Angus Young SG Electric Guitar Ebony $2309 Classic rock doesn't get much bigger than AC/DC, and no one wails out massive, bone-crunching tone like Angus Young on his Gibson SG electric guitar. Young's incendiary tone has inspired wave after wave of rock guitar heroes, and turned on countless players to the power of his seminal guitar of choice, the Gibson SG. Now the Gibson USA Angus Young guitar, brings all the tone and playability of this classic double-cutaway made to Angus Young's own specs within reach of the hardworking rock guitarist, giving you all the punch, crunch, and sizzle that Angus achieves with his own treasured Gibson guitar. Way back in 1961 the Gibson SG electric guitar replaced the under appreciated Les Paul Standard, and while the Les Paul would surface later in the decade as a rock and blues classic, the Gibson SG (originally named Les Paul/SG) was an instant hit in its own right. Its simple yet inspired ingredients of thin, all-mahogany body and neck and two Gibson humbucking pickups gave it a snappy attack with a muscular punch, and its slim, fast neck yielded unprecedented playability. The Gibson SG Angus Young guitar not only captures the look, feel, and sound of a classic SG, the Gibson electric guitar also embodies some of the rare specs and qualities of Angus Young's own '68 guitar, known to be a standout example among a classic breed. The Angus Young guitar's light, all-mahogany body yields superb resonance, while its extra slim, narrow neck provides unparalleled playability—and, topped with an upgraded ebony fingerboard with lightning-bolt inlays, it features a look that will help any rocker stand out from the crowd. Loaded with Gibson's popular '57 Classic humbucking pickup in the neck and an Angus Young humbucker in the bridge for added punch and sizzle, it packs all the firepower a gigging guitarist needs to cut it on the big stage. Each Gibson Angus Young guitar comes with a snug-fitting Gibson USA hardshell electric guitar case.
