Pickups for GRECO EX800 1981 explorer

[gavilan128]

Hello my name is Enrique i have to change the pickups in my Greco 1981 explorer they are dying ,a long way from 1981 .
Asking in Japanese guitar forum,a guy sayed to me that originals Pu was MAXON U-2000 PAF (or T-TOP) Alnico 5 pickups.
Someboy knows where can i buy those PU,OR something like originals PU
My mind is open and other kind of Brands ,Semyour ,Dimarcio or Gibson ,whatever .
I need your opinions .I know that the subjet of pickups is very personal but i need that explain why choose a model or another.

PD: I like the originals but they are dead.......OR any pickups with the original pickups tone ,or similar settings.
Thank u
Enrique

PD2: What about those 80's dirty fingers?

hey enrique

have you thought about getting the magnets recharged. seems like you dont wanna give up your originals,and if theres nothing else with them besides the magnets.

I dont know nothing about recharged the magnets .I`ll ask to my luthier about that but i think that he doesnt make that kind of works .He made a wax bath but he could not fix the pickups.At the end,he say change the pickups .
