Gibson burstbucker 2 and 3

[CyanideJunkie]

wat do u guys think of these pickups? does it suit rhythm playing?

 

[subversion]

it's not about functional fulfilment when it somes to Gibson pickups- do they serve your tonal needs? that should be the main concern.

i'm not a Gibson/ Epiphone fan but the tones i hear from Epi's Boneyard Les Paul are all very pleasant & above-average- it features the Bursbuckers of course... 8)

i see...
wat i'm looking for is a bassy crunch-filled rhythm tone... do u think this pickup is rite for me?

 

[LimpPisskit]

these are standard in all Gibson historic right?

I think it is special or original Japan only burstbucker but Tak Matsumoto burstbuckers sound great to me.

the burstbuckers sounds a little brighter than the 4XX humbuckers by Gibson- the reason Gary Moore likes them 8)

bassy- not a very deep bass definition but still chunky
crunchy- yup, especially the uncovered version

try the Boneyard LP, you'll know what i mean
