Seymour Duncan Joe Bonamassa Bolin Burst Humbucker Set

Seymour Duncan Joe Bonamassa Bolin Burst Humbucker Set

The Seymour Duncan Joe Bonamassa “Bolin Burst” Humbucker Set is a limited-edition signature pickup set that faithfully recreates the tone of Tommy Bolin’s legendary 1960 Les Paul. Designed in collaboration with Bonamassa, these pickups capture the rich, vintage PAF character with modern playability and meticulous craftsmanship.

Each set features Alnico II magnets and is built using vintage-inspired, unpotted construction to preserve that open, breathing response. The bridge pickup offers dynamic bark and edge, while the neck pickup delivers warm, singing cleans and creamy overdrive tones. The Custom Shop even applies aging to evoke that classic look, with the first 500 sets featuring hand-signed bottom plates.

Perfect for vintage-style guitars, players looking to upgrade their stock pickups, or collectors who value tone and heritage, the “Bolin Burst” set brings history, beauty, and soulful response to your instrument.
