dont know if you can buy a sticker or not

some of the vintage type pups dont have logos. 59's, alnico II pros, uncovered seths and antiquitys

Yeah, Jeremy's right. The 59 is a reproduction of a vintage Gibson paf with alnico 5 magnet. Those had no logo. Lew

The PAF clones don't come with decals unless you ask for them. The non PAFs come with decals unless you ask for them not to be included.

If by "decal," you mean the Seymour Duncan logo, Lew is right. There are certain things we do to our vintage pickups to make them vintage correct. For example, if you tore your '59 apart, you'd find a wooden spacer between the studs and the bottom plate wall. All non-vintage humbuckers use a plastic spacer, but the vintage ones use a little chunk of maple, just like the PAFs.

That same philosophy applies to the use of the logo. If it's a vintage reproduction, we don't use a logo on the pickup.

However, if you want a logo on it, make sure to order it that way. It takes a little longer to get the pickup since we build it special for you, but we're happy to do it (and there's no extra charge).

I hope that helps.

Except for the Pearly Gates and the Jazz (if the Jazz fits into the PAF clone category).
