57 Classic Vintage NC : Great pickup!
This is a truly excellent humbucker. It is well made, tidily packaged and relatively sensibly priced. It is advertised to be vintage-accurate in every aspect except the wax potting which should prevent the pickup from feeding back. It is a little brighter than most humbuckers and has less output but still manages to sound clearly with a relatively high amounts of distortion. Needless to say, it excels at styles that don't incorporate excessive amounts of gain, especially blues and jazz. I only wish it was available with a chrome cover because nickel covered humbuckers might look out of place in guitars with chrome hardware.
