Joe Bonamassa & Seymour Duncan Unveil Limited Edition Bolin Burst Pickups
Guitar enthusiasts and Deep Purple fans alike will be thrilled to hear about the new Bolin Burst pickups, a collaboration between Joe Bonamassa and Seymour Duncan. These humbuckers are a faithful recreation of the ones found in Tommy Bolin's iconic 1960 Les Paul Standard, also known as the Bolin 'Burst.
Tommy Bolin, who rose to fame with bands like Zephyr and the James Gang, and later replaced Ritchie Blackmore in Deep Purple, left an indelible mark on the music world. His distinctive playing style and the original pickups in his Les Paul Standard contributed to his unique tone. Now, guitarists can capture a piece of that history with the Bolin Burst pickups.
The new pickups feature Alnico 2 magnets, just like the originals, delivering that authentic vintage tonality. They've been aged to match the wear and tear of the originals, ensuring they look and sound the part. The bridge pickup offers a dynamic, barky sound, while the neck pickup provides warmth and clarity when pushed through an overdriven amp.
Only 500 sets of these pickups will be produced, each signed by both Joe Bonamassa and Seymour W. Duncan. A portion of the proceeds will go towards supporting Tommy Bolin's legacy through dedicated endowment and memorial funds.
The Bolin Burst pickups are more than just a set of humbuckers; they're a tribute to Tommy Bolin's influence on rock music. With their authentic tonality and limited production run, they're sure to be a sought-after addition to any guitarist's collection. So, if you're looking to add a touch of Bolin's legendary sound to your own playing, keep an eye out for these special pickups.
