axiology Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 In my 2002 LPS they're supposed to be, I believe burstbucker pickups. However they have the "Patent Applied for" decal on the back, the same as 57 Classics, and no other identification marks or part numbers. How do I tell the difference? I ask because I want to try some other Gibson PU's ,so I need to define exactly what I have first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamman Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 You might try calling Gibson. The lack of info with your question makes it difficult for anyone to help you . Also pics would help . the guitar & pups(backside). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axiology Posted February 15, 2010 Author Share Posted February 15, 2010 I don't think a picture would help, nothing on the back but the "Patent Applied For" decal. I wish they would punch the part number into the mount or something. I suppose I'll just have to assume they're burstbuckers. They are significantly hotter than the pickups on my ES-135LE ang Reissue 61 SG that I know have 57 Classics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibson Gear01 Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 If the pickups are original, they should be the Burstbucker Pro model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
