Re: pickup ID
you could probably pick one up for about $10-15 from your local department store.

Re: pickup ID

Re: pickup ID
Those pickups are slightly unusual in that they have all stud polepieces and no adjustable screws. Conclusion - they should have had closed metal covers over the bobbins.
Back in the Seventies, DiMarzio used to supply special OEM pickups to Japanese manufacturers such as Hondo. Your guitar is an Antoria. It is perfectly possible that those pickups are the original factory fittings except that somebody has decovered them.

Re: pickup ID
they didn't come in that guitar, i took them off a hondo 2 lp i bought second hand years ago, i just assumed whoever had it before me changed the stock pups to dimarzio. any more info on them assuming they probably are the stock pups from the hondo

Re: pickup ID
Hondo also used to manufacture the matching S. D. Curlee guitar and bass models. (LP D/C body shape.) The guitar version had a double cream bobbin humbucker - almost certainly with the same 12 stud poles as the black HBs on your Antoria.
Your pickups are of good quality but are not exactly equivalent to any regular production DiMarzio design.
