    Covered A4 neck position humbuckers. My favourite. (Guess what I bought last month? ;) )

    I already have a pair of gold PRS humbuckers awaiting a suitable host. I'm going to have to resist the temptation of your OCP pair. IMO, somebody is going to get a bargain.
    Be seeing you.

    Bump. Yeah they're really nice, I just didn't want the shiny gold anymore, I've got zebra now.

  • These look cool. Not much information out there on these, and hard to tell from photos, but these are 4-conductor aren’t they? What do they sound like?

    Hi yeah they're 4 conductor. I would say they're smooth with a lot of sustain, and the oil city description is pretty much spot on. They're what was recommended when I asked for pickups matching the description of BKP Abraxas.

    Bump. They're black with gold pole pieces underneath if you don't want gold covers. I can't get them off cos my soldering iron isn't powerful enough.

    The cover solder can be cut through. This is a fiddly job with potential to go horribly wrong. IMO, the task should be performed at the purchaser's own risk and expense.
    Be seeing you.
