Burstbucker 1 2 3

[SwedishHumbucker]

Anyone who knows what seymour duncan pickup that could represent the Gibson Burstbucker pickups?
I´ve fallen in love with them pickups.
The DC resistance should be following;

BB1 8,4kOhms
BB2 8,7kOhms
BB3 9,1kOhms

They all have the alnico 2 magnet and i´m definitely going for a pickup with alnico 2 and i would prefer it wax-potted which the bb´s aint.
I currently have the Burstbucker Pros in my Les Paul standard which has the alnico 5 magnet but i would like to give it a go with the alnico 2.
Have tried the BB2 i a Gibson Les Paul Custom in a small Vox tube amp and liked the sound.

Would be gratefull for any info about equal seymour duncan pups with alnico 2 magnets.

Take care keep playing...

While not exactly the same, I've always thought the Pearly Gates sounded similar to the BB's.

Had a look at the Pearly Gates, just slightly less output but no bigger difference there, guess i´ll have try it to hear it.

For the record i´m gonna drive my les paul through a tube amp with some sort of high gain.
I´m currently stucked with the KORG AX1500G pedal, using full volume on amp and cabinett simulation and gain on the amp sim to about 5-6.
It gets me nice ringing chords with the Burstbucker pros
