Kim94595 Posted March 28, 2004 Report Share Posted March 28, 2004 Just finishing up my guitar and getting ready to install the electronics. I have a couple of Gibson Humbuckers that I had in an old guitar. I bought them new in 1966 (OK .. I'm older than dirt! .... now back off!). They are in very good shape because I quit playing guitar for many years. Now I'm into it again and having a lot of fun with it. Are these pups worth much because of their age? New, they're about 100 bucks now, I guess. Use them or sell them, I guess that's my question. Thanks a lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weezerboy Posted March 28, 2004 Report Share Posted March 28, 2004 well if they still sound fine then i say go for it, if not you could always get them rewound, repotted etc...depends how they sound and what you are going for soundwise, what kinda genre music etc if they need to be completely rewired etc, it'd still be cool to say that you have some old gibson pickups in your guitar just my two cents dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drak Posted March 28, 2004 Report Share Posted March 28, 2004 With all due respect to a kindly gentleman of your vintage( ) Are you serious or is this a loaded question? Personally, I'd use 'em in a heartbeat, I would never sell 'em. You could find out the answer to that question in less than 1/2 hour by searching e-Bay completed items, that's the fastest way to find the current value of just about anything...
