1976' Japan Greco / Maxon pickups.

[JMP/HBE]

Scored a 1976' Greco Les Paul Custom with original Japan Maxon pickups. Serial dates them : Production line 2, 1976' November 13.
Anyone know what magnets in these ? I heard possible Alnico 5 but have no idea.
Best sounding stock pickups ive ever played in 40+ years. Keeping these in place for sure.
