RJ70 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2016 I like Burstbucker pickup sets. The pickups have a white label on the back with BB1 or BB2. I've noticed allot of Burstbucker pickups advertised on eBay have other descriptions on the back (example AL V ) and some other descriptions. My question is simple. Is the pickup a real Burstbucker if the back label does not say BB1, BB2, or BB3? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jon S. 61 Report post Posted January 4, 2016 Many Burstbucker Pro humbuckers have "AL V" labels. This refers to the Alnico V magnet used on the Pro(the BB 1, 2, and 3 humbuckers use Alnico II magnets). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
