Could this be a PAF PRO?

Looks more like a Tone Zone to me, but the seller INSISTED it was a PAF PRO, saying it was an older model before they used 2 rows of allen pole pieces...

The only PAF PRO I saw similar to this was an OEM Fender humbucker made by Dimarzio for the Richie Sambora Strat (which this guy said it didn't come from)

The mounting ears makes it look like a Dimarzio for sure...No numbers or lettering on the bottom plate or anywhere along the pickup? What about the dc resistance readings? That would get you alot closer...Memory tells me that the PAF Pro is in the 9 to 9.5k range?

The guy is still selling this and the only info he is giving out is that it says Made by Dimarzio... It doesn't say DP-151, so it seems fishy to me.

Hey Fusion buddy...if you're not sure about what you are actually buying,do yourself a favor and shy away from that one..There's always going to be alot of others on e bay or from a forum member..

that is probably from a yamaha guitar and is very similar to a PAF pro.

So what's the dc resistance measurement on the pickup?
