Hope the pics work! Get in touch for any more info..

Trades wise, an attenuator would be handy, or you can try me with pedals, but no drives, got too many already! I may also be interested in compact cabs (1x12 / 2x10) if you're near Brighton.

Cheers, Jif.

Are the Gibson pups ceramic or alnico?

FRockStar

@suv32 They are A2, I believe. I measured resistances today at 8.1kOhms Bridge and 7.85 neck. They came straight out of a 2010 model SG Special that I bought to customise, so I only played em for about 30min to check they were ok.

Here's some blurb from Gibson's own 'Good Tone Hunting' guide:

"Maybe their names aren’t as sexy as Burstbucker or ’57 Classic, but the sound of these versatile pickups inspired by the late wave of the British Invasion – think everything from Cream to T. Rex to Led Zeppelin to Mick Ronson to Mick Taylor – are just as entrancing.

Inspired by the era’s heavy blues-rock tones, often generated by Gibson guitars and high-gain amps like Marshalls and Hi-Watts, are designed to prevent microphonic feedback at maximum overdrive. The “T” and the “R” in their designations stands for “treble” and “rhythm” – which translates as “bridge” and “neck,” respectively. They have the traditional structure and tonal base of the original P.A.F. plus they’re wax potted, to eliminate any air space and minimize microphonic feedback.

The 490R has the tonal characteristics of an original P.A.F., with a slight increase in upper mid-range response. The 490T is calibrated to match the 490R, with pole pieces aligned a little further apart to accommodate the spacing of the strings at the bridge, which is different than the spacing of the strings at the neck."

Hope this helps, cheers.

Good stuff. What kind of trades are you interested in? I have some bareknuckles that measure in at 7.8 and 7.2, with alnico 5 magnets. There's no model no on them but I believe this is quite normal.

@suv32 I might be interested in the BKPs if they are 4 conductor. You got any more info? Pics? Do you know if they are a set or both neck buckers? Pm me, thanks.
