Gibson P-498T GC

I bought both this pickup and the 490R for bridge and neck positions respectively. They are the pickups currently used in Gibson's Les Paul Customs so seemed a logical choice in deciding to upgrade my Epiphone Les Paul Custom.
I also like that they offer a PAF-like sound but with more warmth due to the extra midrange. Additionally they can be adapted for coil tapping unlike the 57 classics
The pickups come in a very tasteful perspex box and a diagram with wiring instructions is included

I bought this pickup together with 490R to upgrade my Epi Sheraton II.Finaly I found the sound that I looking for.Sparking and balanced rich tone.No irritating frequency peaks. I can play hours and hours and not getting tired.Realy great sound.Coil taping also gives wonderful sound to.I?m very satisfied.

These Gibson pick ups sound amazing in my Les Paul. These are the best pick ups money can buy. Only a Gibson pick ups sounds like a Gibson. Everything else is just a copy. This is the real deal.

They do what it says on the plastic case they come in - great pickups no question about the quality

Oh, this humbucker is a blast! Got it for my Explorer project and it transformed the whole guitar, amazing! Sound is full of sustain, tasty meaty distortion, just a classic!

No need for introduction. Put 490R/498T in any Les Paul or SG guitar and it's alive.
