Pickups for GRECO EX800 1981

[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

Hi Enrique.

Since you liked the original pickups have you considered just getting them rewound?

Here is a link to one of the better known pup repair shops:

Are you sure that there isn't some other problem such as a bad switch, pot, or a broken or bad electrical connection that is causing this? It's pretty rare for pickups of that good quality to just go dead,especially both at the same time. Have you actually tested the pickups with a meter to make sure they are truley dead?
