The name says it all! There are certain years that have captivated guitar players because of their cherished tone and the year 1959 is certainly one of them! This is why the Legacy Humbucker is based on this pickup, except we changed the Alnico II magnet to a Alnico V to give it a modern edge and feel that many of today’s players desire!

Constructed of period correct materials right down to the maple spacers, this pickup delivers! The tone is unapproachable and will easily captivate your ears with that amazing balance of highs, mids and bass response yielding unprecedented vintage tone. The pickup is made with enamel wire and alnico V magnets for that perfect rock feel!

The alnico V magnets ensure the edge you are looking for without compromising vintage feel, dynamics or tone.

Made with:

  • Enamel wire
  • Alnico V magnets
  • All mounting hardware included
  • Output approx.: 7.9-8.1k @ Neck
  • Output approx.: 9.5k @ Bridge
  • Wax Potted
  • Hand made to order in the USA

Legacy Humbucker's

I have not used them yet… setting up my (wood) work area and putting this guitar together has had to take a back seat to the death of my daughter, I must say that the staff took care of everything promptly … I am a complete newbie & wasn’t sure of all the parts lingo ( even with an exploded diagram that kind of thing can make my brain short circuit) so I ordered Red & Blue with gold hardware …. So that makes it pretty self explanatory for future buys from Planet Tone or anyone else for that matter As for trying them out ,well stay tuned I will be back with that part after I figure out how I'm going to tie these pick-ups that look like LEGO Blocks in with the rest of this LP Junior ….

Legacy Bridge Humbucker

I wanted a pickup that was very flexible for vintage tones and some hard rock as well for my Yamaha Revstar. Planet Tone recommended the Legacy and I couldn't be happier with it. It produces nice PAF clarity for low-mid gain, cleans up great with the volume knob and can also handle some high gain very well when needed. I highly recommend the Legacy for versatility.

Great sounds , Very Well made

I needed and Asked for a 3 set of humbuckers for after market Les Paul. Jose suggested the 1959s, the set was custom made for me with some personal changes for installation issues . I had upgraded and chaged the 4 pots ( 3 Vol and 1 Tone set up I changed to ) added a switchcraft 3 way switch prior with another brand of pick ups, but was not satisfied with other brand Pick ups so I came to Planet Tone for help , Jose was very helpful and did what I asked to ease my install , custom look and I purchased the set he suggested I would enjoy and he was correct . All worked out as Jose said . Just took me a bit to dial in since was first time I had a 3 pick up Les Paul type guitar with the custom pots set up I changed to. That part was on me , once I got all adjusted and figured out yes all is fine. I am happy and will buy more in future. The workmanship was above board. In fact My Fender Mexican Tele is next for new pick ups.
