Just got a Texas BBQ off ebay and there was no paperwork with the pickup so I don't know if it's a real BBQ. What does the back of one look like? The back of this one is covered with thick wax so I can't see if there is any trademarks on the back. Thanks!:confused:

Is it an open bobbin style (no cover)?
All Rio buckers that I have seen (the ones made in the last 5 or 6 years, at least) are lightly stamped on the black bobbin "RIO GRANDE" (unlike the obnoxious way Seymore Duncan does it).

This one has the cover on it, and the wax is pretty thick on the back so you can't see the back plate. I suppose I could dig the wax out and see if there is any marking. Man, this pup is heavy!
