Is this a real Seymour Duncan?

[Masta' C]

I got a TB6 and I'm waiting for a TB5, both used. I know buying used is a risk but new prices have gone bananas here and I just want to tryna few models without being sure if I'll like them. So here is the TB6. Looks legit and it's in obvious used condition:

Yup, that one's legit

[jeremy]

yep, looks fine to me

And here is the TB5. Again it has been used and seems legit. It was on a direct mount guitar as the center hole has been drilled. Measurement is 14.7K which is bang on. The only question I'd have if the ceramic magnet is regular or double thickness, as this one has a regular thickness magnet.

looks ok to me, though the pics are small on this device. the custom has a normal thickness ceramic

I think you're ok with that one, as well

Just a couple of close ups. I see the plastic bobbin is a bit cracked on the slug side so I don't think a Chinese copy would emulate that lol.
Thank you all for the words of re assurance on these!

Looks like it was reamed out for direct mount. Just something to consider if you were planning on using it in a ring or on a pickguard.

[Edika]

Yeah, I saw that but I had bought a few nuts for othe pickups that had the tabs drilled for direct mount, so I'll use those.

Hi everyone!
I have the opportunity to buy a TB4, the person tells me that they come from a Jackson US soloist. I wanted to know if these are the real Seymour Duncan or not. And possibly know the year.
Thank you for your help

Welcome to the forum.

They look legit, even though the labels differ slightly. Those appear to be both bridge models, made after 2002 but before whatever year they started doing date codes (I don't remember).
