What pickups in ES-347?

I've been offered a 1981 Gibson ES-347 in mint condition.

I'd like to know what p'ups this guitar has. It's the one with the coil-split feature.

Any help would be appreciated.

Series 7 - just DF's potted and covered, and welcome to MLP

The 369 had them with the same wiring.

Re: What pickups in ES-347?

I would think they would be the PAF type Gibson had at the time. Ask in the tonefreak section.

Re: What pickups in ES-347?

I have no clue, but this quote came from the thread OD linked to.

Quote:
The pickups are actually called 'Series 7'. They were installed on all the ES-347's, with a maple body and necks. They are identical to the Dirty Fingers pickups that are now sold without the gold covers. They are now found on the Tom De Longe ES-335 guitar and a few others. It's a ceramic magnet containing pickup, and still considered a vintage style pickup.
