Which pickups R like BurstBucker 1 & 2?

[guitarmart]

I was checking out the Gibson Reissue 1958 Les Paul Standard with CTS pots, bumblebee caps, lightweight aluminum tail and BurstBucker 1 & 2 pickups and I was wondering which Duncans sound most like the Gibson BurstBuckers.

Since I can't afford the Gibby and my Epiphone Elite Les Paul has a real '58 faded plaintop look to it I have been dressing it up a little bit here and there. I added the bell knobs with the pointer washers and changed the chrome Grovers to nickel to match the nickel ABR-1 bridge and tail. I can't believe how much better the nickel Grovers look on this guitar. I also added a SH1 '59 neck pickup and a SH5 custom bridge. I put in a pair of orange drop caps too.

The pots seem to be good quality I'm not sure what brand but these Epi Elites are great guitars IMO.

a pair of Seth's would sound better IMO...they will have the same vibe but more of it! Antiquitys are what the BurstBUckers should have been...they are even better that the Seth's but they do cost quite a bit more. Eother one would be a good choice!
