Obvious fraud.

Giving the seller the benefit of doubt and he did find it in storage somewhere. Its probably the stock pickup that the antiquity replaced.


But knowing Ebay I wouldnt be suprised if there was something slimey going on.

from the plastic on the bottom, I'd say it's the Fender pickup that the Antiquity replaced

nice box, though

That is what I was thinking. The ceramic bars magnets give it away.

I don't think so....

See this?

It's more that likely a very cheap copy.... Not even a Fender Mexican pickup....

I emailed the guy through ebay and told him that he didn't have Ant's at all. He replied and said that he would post that fact to the auction page. We'll see if he follows through.

I just looked again, no updates to the page yet. 1 bid so far for a fake.

Re: Another ebay slickster !!

in the webpage description, the seller says he has absolutely no experience in guitar pickups at all. SOUnds to me that the box belonged to someone else other than the seller and the original owner placed the stock pickup in the Antiquity box... this is fraud.
