Gibson BurstBucker 2 Humbucker Pickup
BurstBucker pickups from Gibson Original Equipment now give guitarists a choice of 3 replica sounds from Gibson's original ?Patent Applied For pickups -- the pickups that give the ?59 Les Paul Standard its legendary sound. The 3 BurstBuckers -- all with unpolished magnets and non-potted coils, like the originals - represent the variations found among vintage Gibson humbuckers.
Feature:
handsomely made....in the USA i might add....
Quality:
All kool.....
Value:
Great value.
Desirability:
well i try not to pay any attention to Product "names"..or expert "reviews"..or any kind of spin that the Money people put on a product. I try to remain impartial and have went to extremes to judge a product on its actual merits (based in my reality), and have tried to cast out any type of influence through "other" sources that would bias my opinion on a product. Many times i am surprised at what i discover(like admitting that a $200. no-name import sounds better than a top dollar american made classic. Reality is sometimes hard to deal with, and some people absolutely refuse to deal with it....
Sound:
Its a pretty close approximation of a vintage 59 paf, although in very high gain settings it squeals and occilates because of the lack of potting. But...i assume the lack of wax potting also contributes to the vintage sound...so its a trade-off. But all in all a very nice sounding pickup for 100 bux
Ease of Use:
zep fans take notice.....
Support:
have not needed any yet,,,
Overall:
again this is a really good pickup
