The Gibson Patent Number pickup commonly called a 'Patent Number' humbucker is the direct successor to the legendary PAF. When Gibson finally received the patent for Seth Lover's humbucking design in July 1959, they began transitioning from the 'Patent Applied For' sticker to a new label bearing the actual patent number. By the early 1960s, the sticker style Patent Number pickup was in full production.
