Overview

Gibson 490R Modern Classic Rhythm Pickup Gold

Classic PAF-Inspired Neck Tone

The Gibson 490R Modern Classic is a neck-position humbucker designed with the tonal character of Gibson’s original Patent Applied For pickups. Its Alnico 2 magnet produces warm lows, clear highs and a slightly enhanced upper-midrange response.

Versatile Four-Conductor Design

Four-conductor wiring supports series, parallel and coil-split configurations when installed with compatible switching. Wax potting reduces unwanted microphonic feedback at higher volume levels, while the gold cover delivers a premium vintage-inspired appearance.

Features

  • Neck-position humbucker
  • Alnico 2 magnet
  • Four-conductor wiring
  • Wax-potted construction
  • Double-black bobbins
  • Gold metal cover
  • PAF-inspired Gibson tone
