I would like to know how old these pickups are.
They were in a LP that I bought some 8 years ago. They seem pretty old to me.
There's no label on the back, just a signature. Any ideas on the value of these pickups?
Those are Seymour Duncan Antiquities, they are aged to look older than they are. Cant recall the exact year of introduction but my foggy memory says mid 2000's. As for value I wouldnt pay more than about 180 bucks for the pair.
They are actually really sweet pups, and as a side note those are actually wound by the man himself, and of late seems he isnt doing that anymore as the new antquities are wound by MJ... so possible future collectible.

Yeah, those are definitely an early set of Ants. Mine look like that. The newer ones aren't as worn looking. I think they were actually introduced in the mid-'90's. That's when I got mine, if I remember correctly. Awesome pickups.
seeing as the newer antiquities arent that aged looking, i wouldnt be surprised if you could get more than $180 from the right person if you are patient although $180 is a fair price. do you have a multimeter to check the resistance on them?
