Only BB are potted !

 

Are you sure only BB are potted? My understanding is that the '57 classics are potted, BB Pro's are potted, but BurstBucker #1,2 and 3 are not potted. I think the BB pro's are potted because of the higher output, to reduce the chance of feedback etc

Wax came out from under the adjustable polepiece screws when i adjusted them on the '57 Classic PAF's on my ES-339, so I'm certain they are potted. Same for the 490R and 490T's I put into my Epi Dot.

 

Now, my understanding is that the Burstbucker 1 & 2 in the Historics are not wax potted, but the V/Pro in the latest incarnations of standards are potted.
