Strings to the Max Posted September 1, 2003 Report Share Posted September 1, 2003 I'm sure every body here has had a bad purchase off ( E-BAY ). Mine were my own stupidity by not reading into the seller or product. How can you tell if the 500T is really from Gibson lor not there are many P/U's That are Identical to the Eye, there has to be a marking of some sort isn't there??? Max!

Tezifon Posted September 1, 2003 Report Share Posted September 1, 2003 hum, they usually have gibson engraved in the baseplate, the screws indicate if the pickup is of neck or bridge, the magnets in this pickups has a lot of power if is a 500 t try it in the neck position with 1 meg volume pot, no tone ****ing awesome pickup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tezifon Posted September 1, 2003 Report Share Posted September 1, 2003 you can use a polymeter i think to read the pickup and compare it to factory specs if the pickup don´t have the 4 wires (then they are from a guitar not buy alone) you can find they in a side covered with tape, to split coils Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
