Does anyone know what pickup these are

[Securb]

I am watching Sabbath playing during the 13 tour. Does anyone know what pickups Tony is using? The bridge is a rail version of whatever they are. They sound sick.

Looks like its the same make as the neck... Figure out the neck pup maker and you'll probably figure it out. Try looking at British boutique makers. Sorry I'm not much more help.

Found them all on my own

These pickups are replicas of John Birch Pickups from the UK which were made in the 70's. The neck pickup is a Hyperflux and the bridge is a Magnum.

I've been wondering about these for a while.

I've been wondering about these for a while.

They are releasing the vintage style in 2015 for a run. The third generation pickups new are only $150 a set. I just wonder how close the 3rd gen sound to the originals. All of the reviews on the are positive.
