## Overview

The Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates Humbucker Set is a hand-built, vintage-output pickup duo designed to replicate the iconic tone of Billy Gibbons’ 1959 Les Paul. Featuring Alnico 2 bar magnets, a unique midrange emphasis, and wound on the original Leesona machine, these pickups deliver classic rock authenticity with squeal-free performance, perfect for professional guitarists seeking that unmistakable Texas sizzle and vintage mojo.

## Description

The Pearly Gates neck captures all the mojo of the original neck pickup from Billy Gibbons' 1959 Les Paul. It is a PAF with a unique tonal character, and more midrange than typical humbuckers from that time. The result is a neck pickup that cuts through with stronger tailored midst, but still has the open and airy treble attack of the alnico 2 bar magnet. Combined with a warm, spongy low end, this pickup is great for both rhythm and lead playing.

Review: Sweet tone - luthier and 40 years experience - The eq range on these is so pleasant. Just enough punch, brightness and absolutely perfect for classic rock, prog rock, or any variety of music. I coil split mine for more options. Converted my handmade boutique strat to be a dream machine.
Review: Great pickups that will surprise you in a very good way. Alnico 2 forever! - Incredibly great pickups. Instant Billy Gibbons tone without having to twist a single knob on my 5150 combo. These are my first Alnico 2 pickups and I don't believe that I'll ever buy another Alnico 5 set. Brown sound for days. No harshness, only sweet and spicy tones. I swapped them into my evh copy (pictured) that I ordered while I was drinking. It turns out that the guitar wasn't terrible but the pickups weren't very good. These pickups have made this guitar at least my second favorite. It sounds great now.

## Features

- The Pearly Gates neck captures all the mojo of the original neck pickup from Billy Gibbons’ 1959 Les Paul. It is a P.A.F. with a unique tonal variation that provides more midrange than typical humbuckers from that time. The result is a neck pickup that cuts through with stronger tailored mids, but still has the open and airy treble attack of the Alnico 2 bar magnet. Combined with a warm, spongy low-end, this pickup is great for both rhythm and lead playing.
- Hand built in our Santa Barbara, CA factory, the Pearly Gates vintage output humbucker pickups use an Alnico 2 bar magnet, nickel silver bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and are vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance.
- As with all our P.A.F. style humbuckers, every Pearly Gates is wound on Seymour’s original Leesona winding machine from the early Gibson factory in Kalamazoo, Michigan, for that unmistakable vintage mojo.
- Handmade in Santa Barbara, California: Seymour Duncan takes pride in designing and crafting our products to create the most amazing sound possible. That starts with providing an environment that attracts and retains our great team of engineers, product designers and craftsmen, many of whom have been with the company for decades.

Incredibly great pickups. Instant Billy Gibbons tone without having to twist a single knob on my 5150 combo.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ absolutely wonderful pickups
*by A***R on February 18, 2022*

Bought two sets of these. Initially one was for a PRS SE Custom 24 which had the SE type 85/14 pickups, which were weak and thin sounding. I almost went with the Duncan Seth Lover pickups before settling on these. The Set Lovers as a great sounding PAF type pickups, and in my mind, the Pearly Gates are very similar except that they have just a bit more output. If you like the sound of PAF pickups, but want just a bit more balls - go for these. Played clean they are dynamic, clear with great clarity and string to string balance. A bluesy crunch maintains than clarity and balance. At full distortion, they don't turn muddy or buzzy. The tone is actually inspiring. Some time later, one of the pickups in my '80 Gibson Les Paul developed a serious issue. I was so impressed with the Pearly Gates pickups in my PRS, I bought a second set for the LP. Installed in the LP, it really came to life. Just incredible sound. I've always been a fan of Seymour Duncan's pickups, and these are no exception. I highly recommend these pickups. One note to Amazon. Both packages were packaged by simply dropping them into a plastic bubble envelope. The first set arrived with a dirty footprint on the envelope, the manufacturers plastic jewel box, in which the pickups are packaged was fine. Please put $200 items inside a cardboard box -- Please.
