I have a set of G&B pickups with chrome covers for sale on Reverb for $59, here: https://reverb.com/item/36080322-a-pair ... ome-covers
$35 delivered to AGF members.

I also have another set I am rewinding (the owner was trying the magnet trick and broke both). These will be PAF's with Alnico 2 magnets. Dual black bobbins, no covers with 4 conductor wiring. The bridge pickup will be around 8.0K DCR and the neck will be about 7.3K DCR. Scatter wound and lightly wax potted.

These will be $40 for the set, delivered to AGF members.

PM me if you are interested.

I think you need to double-check that link: it's just showing each person their own listings.

I'll buy the rewinds in a heartbeat. I'd ask if you could write something on the bottom indicating that they're A, the DCR, and rewinds just so I don't do something stupid and forget.

Thanks for the heads-up and grabbing the rewinds. They are set aside for you. Do you have a guitar to load them in? If so, I will install them and you'll save me a step (testing and listening).

Otherwise, I am going to load them into one of mine to test.

I should just buy your fixed ones and save me the step of breaking mine when I decide to try :)
