Burstbuckers wanted (definitely this time....)

rlw

I'm after a BB1 and BB2, wax potted, either nickel (not too aged) or zebra, with lots of wire for my Sheraton upgrade.  Cash awaits.....

Think I have a zebra pair but will have to check tonight. How much are you offering?

rlw

Whatever is the going rate I guess.  I've seen them go for £120 up to £150 so somewhere in that range.

rlw

But do these actually exist potted? The Gibson site suggests not...

Nope, the BB pros are though iirc?

@rlw - Zebra neck is 25cm normal braided wire, reading 7.68k. Zebra bridge is 20cm 4-wire, reading 8.15k.

Let me know if they are of interest or not. Thanks.

If you think - I honestly don't know - if those wires are long enough, then I'm interested.  I guess that they can be extended anyway.  This is all new to me.

That I don't know. I have some brand new Gibson Livebuckers that have 40cm leads so the Burstbuckers may have been shortened.

I have had a bit of a look and reckon that I need at least 30/35 cm given the way the wires are routed currently.   I think that I'd better pass on them given the potential difficulties and my total novice status....

No problem
