What's Hot

edited August 2021 in Parts £
I’ve got a pair of old Dimarzio PAF /Super Distortion pickups - circa mid 70s Square footed, currently residing in my Les Paul which I bought from here for @WezV’  Neck pup lead has been extended. Thing is’ they’re  just a little to hot for me so looking at a possible trade for something a little tamer?  of similar trade value?
Something along the lines of some BKPs? Duncan’s? Preferably covered ‘aged’ but not a deal breaker.. 

Or sell £100 posted?
Cheers.

    These originally came to me in a John Birch Les Paul, which would also be late 70's I think.  Square feet, "Made in USA" stamp and plastic wire put them mid to late 70's, but I'm told the slot head screws on the baseplate make them more mid than late 70's 

    They lived in that for most of its life, till it came to my for some major structural work.  It's all genuine wear on these. They sounded better in the john birch than the proper JB pickups I have in it now

    Found the old readings from when i first got them

    Thanks for the pics and additional info @WezV  :+1:  Great sounding pickups, but I’d  just prefer something a little tamer now?

    glad someone bought these, they would have been perfect for my Westbury standard, alas the boiler is making horrendous noises and the dog  has kidney failure so enormous vets bills each month mean I would have had my knackers served to me on a plate had I pulled the trigger.
