Modern Classic vs BurstBucker 1&2

Im torn between 2 sets of trusty pickups.

 

i love the 490R/T set with the nickel covers, and I've also got a set of BB1 and BB2.

 

My LP studio has nickel covered 490R/498T in it stock, and i plan on replacing them with uncovered ones...

 

The question is, for a chambered studio (2008 model), which set would be more beneficial ?

 

I play mostly southern bluesy/rock stuff (think Skynyrd)as well as classic rock styles and a touch of jazz.

 

:-k

 

Opinions would be greatly appreciated as well as a bit of reasoning too.

 

thanks in advance guys

Burstbuckers or Burstbucker Pros?

In any event - the answer to your question is put in the 490/498, play the guitar for a while and then but in the BBs for a while. Decide which pickups you like more and keep those ones in the guitar. Replacing pickups is a simple procedure that almost anyone can do and doesn't take very long. Watch a few youbtube videos on how to do this and you'll be a pro in no time.
