bacosta1972 Posted December 31, 2017 Author Share Posted December 31, 2017 They are wax potted, just didn’t want to pop the cover off to see a block of wax to clean up! Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if you were to look up the burstbuckers vs other Gibson pick ups on this site, http://store.gibson.com/humbucker-pickups/, you will see that wax potting is specified for some pick ups but not the burst buckers. I recall that was part of the charm when they first introduced the burst buckes that they were closer to the original PAFs which also were not potted. BB1's have A1 mags. BB2's have A2s and the BBpros have A5s. That is the break down for BBs, nothing to do with potting. Johnny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinch Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 The Pros are wax potted. I believe the non-Pros aren't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bacosta1972 Posted January 3, 2018 Author Share Posted January 3, 2018 Won’t let me upload from iPad, they had very little wax on the top, hair dryer for 10 seconds and wiped off clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
