I removed these Alnico V humbuckers from my Agile 3100. The previous owner of the guitar is not sure what caused the premature aging, but it actually looks pretty cool. As we all know, most pickup manufacturers and guitar shops will charge you to make your pickups look vintage like this. There is a very slight blue tint to some of the streaks on the covers, I believe they are nickel/chrome.

As for the sound, these are really good for stock pickups, much better than the cheap stock epiphones, I shouldn't even compare the two. I don't have a multimeter, but according to some Agile owners online the neck is about 8k, the bridge is around 15k. I didn't think they sounded quite that hot through my amp, they clean up nicely, but also have enough oomph to go all out metal if you need them to. I wish I had a vintage looking guitar to put these in, if I did I wouldn't be selling them. The wear is only cosmetic, they are 100% functional and noise free. Nice long lead wires, 4-conductor. $55 cash for the pair, shipped and paypal'd. I would sell for less if it wasn't for shipping and paypal. I'll ship them via USPS in some seymour duncan boxes for you. Let me know if you have any questions. If they are slow sellers I might negotiate via pm.

Here is a clip of me blasting the stock agile pickups before I swapped them out. Starts on neck clean, then bridge clean, then bridge distortion. We're just having fun in my apt jamming, this is my second practice with this drummer, this was recorded with a portable zoom. If you can get passed the sloppiness, badly improvised solo, etc. you will hear that these pickups actually sound pretty damn good.
