FS Gibson Burstbucker Pro aka Lead Pro

[Franknfilms]

I bought this bb pro used and then realized it won't even fit into my 2017 sg pcb. This 2008 pickup has a big black plug, my pcb only takes the white plugs. If you don't have a pcb you can just snip off the plug, the wire is plenty long. You can see a few scratches in the pics.

$60 includes shipping to US, 48 states. Paypal only.

I would consider trade for a gibson bridge pickup with the white plug, if you happen to have one. 498t, bb pro, or anything really.

Bump. I have an A8 magnet that I could install, if you don't prefer the stock a5.

Gibson really shot themself in the foot, making incompatible wiring harnesses.

Personally, I'd just cut the original pickup lead and solder the new pickup's wires to that.

Or, gut the whole PCB. Install Gibson or CTS pots and hardwire it all like an old Standard.

Is this pickup identical to a normal 2 wire pickup if I just cut the plug off of it? Maybe I will just use it on a different guitar. Or someone more likely to buy it if I cut off the plug?
