WTB: Decent pair of humbuckers

What's Hot

As above. Low-medium winds are mostly what I'm after, and I'd prefer them to have covers. However, I'm open to any other suggestions. 

Budget £100-150. Lollar, Bareknuckle, Bulldog, that sort of thing.

WHY?

    What colour plating? Black, chrome, gold, nickel, something else?

    How long do the output cables need to be?
    Be seeing you.

    Sorry, I should've been a bit more specific. They'd be for a Les Paul, so preferably nickel, although I would consider chrome. Cable length approx 25cm for the neck and 20cm for the bridge.

    These are lower output than the name suggests, very suited to a Les Paul too as they have a tighter bass, more highs.

    Thanks for the offer. They're a little hotter than I'd like, and I'm now thinking I might want alnico 2 for both neck and bridge. I will bear them in mind, though.

    That rules out my gold PRS pair. 
    Be seeing you.

    @strat84 had a set of Wolfetone Legends for sale, which will have A2 magnets.  I have a set in my favourite Les Paul and they are rather decent, I must say :)

    Thanks bodhi. Looks like he's withdrawn them, though. Some Dr Vintage's have popped up, so hopefully I can grab them instead.  :)
