IN STOCK
Order before 3pm Mon-Thu for Next Day Delivery
From scorching blues licks to sizzling rock riffs, Billy Gibbons has always pushed the boundaries of tone. Inspired by the legendary Pearly Gates™ pickups from his iconic 1959 Les Paul, the Seymour Duncan Hades Gates™ Humbucker Set turns up the heat with a hotter wind and the sweet, mid-forward punch that defines Billy’s signature sound.
A Fiery Take on a Classic P.A.F.
Built for players who crave vintage character with extra power, the Hades Gates™ pickups feature Alnico 2 magnets, delivering a smooth, dynamic response while pushing your amp into the kind of hot, blue, and righteous overdrive that Billy is known for. With enhanced midrange punch and added output, this set thickens up your tone while retaining the clarity and articulation of a classic P.A.F.
Optimized for Power & Versatility
With a slightly hotter wind than traditional P.A.F.s, the Hades Gates™ Set provides rich sustain, singing lead tones, and full-bodied rhythm sounds. The bridge pickup delivers bold, harmonically rich overdrive, while the neck pickup stays smooth and articulate, perfect for soulful blues bends and warm cleans.
Handcrafted for True Tone
Each Hades Gates™ humbucker is hand-built in Seymour Duncan’s Santa Barbara, California workshop using premium vintage-style materials:
- Alnico 2 magnets for warm, responsive tone
- 4-conductor wiring for coil-splitting and versatile wiring options
- Short mounting legs for compatibility with a variety of guitars
- Vintage output with a hotter punch to drive your amp harder
- If you’re looking for a P.A.F.-inspired humbucker with just the right amount of Texas heat, the Hades Gates™ Set delivers the perfect balance of vintage warmth, smooth sustain, and scorching blues-rock attitude.
