I bumped into these on eBay. I thought since they were still in the original packaging that it was pretty cool. Now the only dilemma is getting me to take them out of the package to actual use them.

I have a S300-D that I'm in the process of refinishing and I thought about installing them in that, but I dont think I will ever have the balls to open them up. I might just end up selling them... :wink:

Boy that's a tough call :? ...but that's a good problem....other than a collector value....they're not doing any good sittin' in the package, right?

So cool! I never saw such a package. So what is the difference in a HB-1C and a HB-1G? I never heard those endings before:

HB-1C = Chrome

HB-1G = Gold

(Bet yer feelin' pretty dumb about now aren't cha? :wink: )


Oh, and just for the record, there's also an HB-2C. That's the bass pick-up.

One of the spring brackets popped through the white plastic on the backside of the package during shipping, so I guess technically the seal has already been broke kind of.
