SOLD
Had planned on keeping these but I'm not crazy about vintage braided hookup wire so I thought I'd see if there's any interest here.
Brushed nickel radiator style covers
A5 magnets (iirc I used bigger mags to give them more of a tron/gretsch vibe/tone)
Vintage braided hookup wire
10k bridge 8.5k neck
Standard 49.2/50mm spaced
Wax potted
Nickel silver baseplates
1018 steel screws
105 shipped

I'm pretty sure I have a couple guitars to choose from they would look/sound great in. And I like the grill look, very Jeep. I'll take em.

Done deal, thanks Tim!
Now I have to decide which guitar gets these (hot-ish) pickups. Of my humbucker guitars, here's the list that could use pickup upgrades. Thing is, none of the other hardware matches, so more updates will be needed I think.
Bach Explorer
Eastwood Airline 59 2P
Italia Maranello Speedster
Pure Salem Billy Bo
Reville Lemon Flame
Reville SG
SX Liquid HH
Opinions welcome.

I think the BillyBo makes the most sense but the Eastwood, Liquid, or the Italia would work too.
Nice collection btw

Thanks! I'm leaning that way too. The "car color" guitars just seem to go better with that pickup design.

The pickups arrived today safe and sound with extra goodies, it feels a bit like Christmas. I still have not decided which guitar gets them, but they look great in person. I guess I can lay them on each guitar's top and see how they look in context now.
