Hot stacks are afaik the only single coils that were ever available with a fully closed cover w/ the "humbucker logo"... I had a set that looked identical about 10 years ago... the new ones have a continuous bar...

Zerberus is right!!! I finally have confirmation on this, I found an online auction with this picture in it, they're clearly the ones! These were advertised as "Seymour Duncan original Hot Stacks with burgundy colored covers (rails not visible) from the mid-80's". Thanks Zerberus!!
Look familiar? :banana: :dance:

btw the ad also said they were "for strats". hmmm.... sounds familiar yet again! question is though, what were they doing in a Jackson?? would "strat" mean just the body style of the guitar or would it mean like a Fender strat for example? does it really matter?

"For Strats" is just a general term describing the formfactor of the pickup /where it will fit... It really only means it´s a standard Single coil formfactor and as such will fit standard SC routs with no modification to the actual guitar
Has nothing to do with where the pickup can "really" be used... for example some people (like yours truly) use a JB (which is a "bridge pickup" by design / original intent) in teh neck slot with astounding results.
That´s the nice thing about pickups (actually guitars in general): If you can think of it, you can probably do it... It´s only a question of how practical it is and / or how much it will cost, and of course if YOU´RE happy and inspired by the result is the ultimate criteria
