deepblue Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 BurstBuckers are made with unpolished Alnico II magnets and unpotted coils I read this on Gibsons pickup info page. The BB 1 & 2's on my R9 have wax on them?....am I missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmeds Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Not sure. Maybe the covers are waxed whereas the coils themselves aren't. Perhaps a call to CS may provide the answer. :- Play On! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AXE® Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Here is what I've got. The original BB's are unpotted to replicate the 59 humbucker. All others are potted. I have an original BB in the neck of my bird, and it is dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepblue Posted June 13, 2009 Author Share Posted June 13, 2009 I have an original BB in the neck of my bird, and it is dry. hmmm? My R9 is a 2007. I wanted to see what colour the coils were so ( as per adviced ) I turned one of the pup screws and noticed a bit of wax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwness Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 I have 2 LP's one 1999 and a 2002 and no wax. I thought factory guitars no wax. CW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
