Dickey Betts pickup?

[Cosmic Remedy]

My friend who works at my local guitar shop was telling me about a trade in they received of a Les Paul featuring Dickey Betts pickups. I was always under the impression he used Burstbuckers...is there such a thing as a Dickey Betts pickup? If so , does anyone care to tell me a little about it, thanks. I looked on MF & Ebay with no luck.

There's one on display at The Big House Museum, a Goldtop, I was there last week, don't know ofor sure what pickups are in that one though, I'll hafta ask next time I'm there.

The WCR BetSet is the set that replicates the sound of that LP, the one Betts used at the Fillmore East, on that famous recording.

The Sheptone Blue Sky pickups are a take off on Dick Betts goldtop. I haven't heard them live but the clips sound very good. The reviews are also very good.

I have the Blue Sky set in my R7, and they are fantastic.
