Hey, Has anyone out there ever seen a Gibson humbucker that was half T Top and half pre-T Top? I just got this pickup from a mid-60's 335, and one bobbin is clearly a T Top but the other bobbin has no T and it has the square in the circle hole showing the windings. Do you think somebody swapped in a bobbin, or did they ever come out of the factory like this?

That's a very good question....

I doubt that someone would change bobbins on a humbucker (altho some quot;freaksquot; do it on a daily basis on this forum to create hybrids )

There probably will be someone more knowledgeable than myself to help you out around here but maybe you'd have more luck asking this over at the Lespaul forum....

it could have been old bobbin stock mixed in with new stock at the factory when they made the change, so it could be one of the very first from the t-top period

I own a T TOP, lying here somewhere. I believe T TOPs did not always say T on both sides.

By the way T TOPs are great pickups, too bad they don't have 4 conductor lol

That can be changed... I've done it a few times...
