Know anything about these?

[solspirit]

Is this their answer to the Brobucker? Or vice versa?

Doesn't look too bad. At least they are very specific in their description.

Seems a little cheap for Epiphone, no?

Epiphone's version of Gibson Burstbuckers 2&3

I thought it was the Epi version of the Burst Bucker Pro? The big difference would be A5 vs A2

No, they're A2.

They've been around for a few years. I don't really know if they came after the Brobucker. My guess is these are actually older.

The bridge one is based on the BB3, except it's wider-spaced, so it will read high in DCR. Probably in the high 8K's. Neck is narrower, and based on the BB2, so probably high 7 or low 8K's.

I had a set of those in an Epi LP years ago... Hated them and the guitar...

 

[Rex_Rocker]

Yeah, they came on an Epi LPC I had a couple of years ago. To be honest, I wasn't looking for low output pickups at the time, so I didn't really give them a fair chance. They sound warmer/darker than the Gibson counterparts, from what I remember.
