    Just a guess, but the baseplates look to have the big round corners, like the PAF Long leg Baseplates AFX sells.
    Probably someones handwinds?

      I'd guess something European by the way the DCR is labaled 8k3 and 7k4, rather than 8.3k and 7.4k.

      The feet don't look, to me, to be the shape of Addiction's - more rounded off "toes" and less tooling marks. ….they do have that sharp break angle on the inner side though, and it's been a while since I've seen Addiction's parts.

      How do they sound? What's inside?

        Looks like a hand made set judging from the initials, and the fact it was written with a marker. And there's all your specs as far as the DC resistance and magnet type.

          Agreed. I still get them. They still haven't changed at all. These do not look like them.

            They look pretty close to me.

              That would appear to be a signature, not just initials.

                I have it all figured out.
                They are Will Boggs fakes.
                Everyone's copying those pickups with that magic wire these days.

                  They don't look like Addiction plates to me because it doesn't appear that the screws thread into them....

                      Maybe they do like I did on the two I had, I liked them better with the threads drilled out!
                      Much easier to work with.

                              I have a StewMac in front of me right now.... but this one has the hole the braided wire comes out of is equal distances from both sides.

                              The one pictured seems to be closer to the long edge than the side with the leg.
