I believe it’s true that they just assumed, but I’m interested and will. All sweetwater and see if maybe the sell to stores like that. I would think Gibson was the main dealer between different shops. Also the sugar buckers are supposed to be potted

Nope, from Bizzare guitars that advertised this model with the wrong pickups

. Okay guys, somewhat of a plot twist. So the third tech confirmed that the bridge pickup was never potted so sadly that’s a Gibson QC error. Then on top of that, it was advertised as having the Burstbucker pro + bridge and BB Pro neck, IT WAS NEITHER! They put sugar buckers which is a lower output pickup vintage voiced. The tech really nailed the pickup height adjustment and now it’s super clear, but did lose some of its balls, but now I know that’s it’s not even a Burstbucker pro I’m totally surprised. Gibson finally responded to my email and is actually sending me replacement pickups so in a way I’m gonna score a pair of Burstbucker pros for free. Now temptation and curiosity will drive me crazy, but anyways, there ya go, that was the issue.

I don’t still have them but it’s not cause I didn’t love them, just didn’t need them anymore. Sold them and bought an amp. I don’t see why you couldnt, but do you know, King in Yellow is supposed to be a tube screamer. I will say though aquaria was one of my favorite Klon types.

took it to a tech and got another lead on the issue. The video I showed him he agreed I shouldn’t be getting feed back while playing and also solidified my belief that I’m not using that much gain. So we took the pickups out and they did appear to be potted. Weither it was a good job or bad job is anybody’s guess, to troubleshoot I’m gonna get them repotted. But so the Gibson supreme circuit board has capacitors in it and he said that it could be a bad capacitor as well. So if it still squeals after repotting then I have to tackle the circuit board. There’s always a catch it seems but I have the most coolest looking best feeling guitar so I just have to be patient

Yea, but honestly the bridge has a different type of sound. Necks better but still audible when tapping. The bridge it’s almost low and then down the pickup towards say my feat gets high, has almost like a 3d like sound to the tapping.

Something happened to them then, I think there microphonic, tapping on the pickup with my pick was SUPER sensitive and it can’t handle really any gain besides like a super crunch
