: what pickups could this have in it besides dirty finger pickups.the dirty finger pickups ive seen have 12 ajustable poles mine only have 6 they look like reg. expose coil pickups please help thanks

Reply: my 1989 model Gibson had exposed black-bobbin pickups which were ceramic 497R (rhythm) and 500T (treble). Chances are good that yours are the same. By the way, Gibson Explorers, SG Deluxes and Les Paul Classics seem to be using these now.

For more info, I've been calling Gibson at 1-800-4-GIBSON for courteous, efficient, player-friendly information. I've appreciated their top-notch customer service which I usually don't get elsewhere.

Good Luck, Dwight
