Gibson 57 Classic Underwound

The Gibson ’57 Classic Underwound Humbucker takes the beloved vintage character of the traditional ’57 Classic and gives it a slightly lower-output, more open and articulate voice. Inspired by Gibson’s legendary late-1950s P.A.F. humbuckers, it’s an excellent choice for players who value clarity, touch sensitivity, and vintage warmth.

The underwound design provides increased openness and definition, allowing more of your guitar’s natural character to come through. Expect warm lows, clear mids, and smooth highs with excellent note separation—especially useful for clean passages, expressive blues playing, and vintage-style rock tones.

With its lower output, the ’57 Classic Underwound responds beautifully to picking dynamics and guitar volume changes, moving easily from clean and sweet to warm, natural overdrive.
