Based on a great sounding set of early ‘70’s T-top pickups that came through the workshop.

Wound with red Poly wire and Alnico V short magnets. These pickups have great clarity and note definition with a little less output in the bridge compared to the Classic’s resulting in less bottom end and a more open middle position ‘quack’. Think 70’s classic rock and blues tones.

Position: Bridge

DC Resistance: 7.7 kΩ

Magnet: Alnico V Short

Position: Neck

DC Resistance: 7.4 kΩ

Magnet: Alnico V Short

I've been using the Vertigo vintage T-Top humbuckers in 2 of my Gibson Les Paul Customs which are tuned to B standard for almost 2 years now. I own an original set of T-Tops that are in my '72 Les Paul Custom & to my ears, the Vertigo T-Tops are pretty much identical to my originals.

I find the Vertigo T-Tops are perfect for tuning to B standard as they have a real bite to them & are quite aggressive sounding even though they are low output pickups.
I also run huge amounts of gain through my rig, so being low output, I find that the T-Tops retain great clarity & string articulation.
I'd highly recommend the Vertigo T-Tops to anyone. Absolutely brilliant.” Jason Higson of Ya̧nomamö
