There are obviously a variety of current Gibson p/ups which have their own sound and tone.However,if one doesn't know what type of p/up is in their Lester ,how can one verify whether it is a 490, 492,496,498or a 500 type p/up?Are there any visible cues to determine what type of p/up it is?
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Mel.
