A SOLID-BODY ELECTRIC GUITAR, MODEL 35

This guitar was gifted to Jeff Beck by Seymour Duncan in celebration of the 35th anniversary of the Seymour Duncan Custom Shop. The Seymour Duncan 35 was released in 2011 as an anniversary limited edition guitar inspired by the famous Tele-Gib he built for Jeff Beck in the early 70s, which matched a Fender Telecaster with hot-rodded Gibson-style humbuckers. This is the concept that would later serve as the basis of the Seymour Duncan JB Model and its frequent match, the Jazz Model. The Seymour Duncan 35 guitar served to launch the JB & Jazz “Concept” Humbuckers - a Custom Shop recreation of the original pickups Seymour wound for Jeff Beck’s original Tele-Gib well before there was a Seymour Duncan Company. According to Duncan, the pickups are exactly like the pickups in the original Tele-Gib, with a long-legged bottom plate, single-conductor wire, and Alnico-2 magnets in the neck pickup, and Alnico-5 in the bridge.
