Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SB1508-R transistor can have a current gain of 100 to 200. The gain of the 2SB1508 will be in the range from 70 to 280, for the 2SB1508-Q it will be in the range from 70 to 140, for the 2SB1508-S it will be in the range from 140 to 280.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SB1508-R might only be marked "B1508-R".The complementary NPN transistor to the 2SB1508-R is the 2SD2281-R.You can replace the 2SB1508-R with the 2SB1155, 2SB1156, 2SB1509 or 2SB1509-R.
