This powerful pair of pickups provide open and pristine top-end chime, glassy midrange, robust low end, and balanced harmonics for tone that blends seamlessly with other instruments.

The combination of individual pickup volume controls, master no-load tone and master volume with treble bleed circuit provides intuitive global control over your pickup and tone settings.

The G6118T-140 features an opulent 2-Tone Pure Platinum over Stone Platinum finish, adorned with matching pickguard and pickup bezels, jeweled G-Arrow control knobs, and a commemorative 140th Anniversary plaque on the matching headstock to create a look and style as big and unmistakable as its sound.
