Re: Early George Lynch - Bill Lawrence?
nah, the Schallers and X2Ns both have very 'pronouced' coils,
whereas the L90 looks more like a cream humbucker cover with
2 rails attached

God knows what parta that tiger guitar has had over the years
You don't happen to know about any pictures of those MighyMite pickups?

Re: Early George Lynch - Bill Lawrence?
No but I do recall seeing a catalog back in the day with double bladed pickups, just like the Schaller Hot Stuff pickups. If I were a betting man it would be either of those 2, and definitely not an X2n and most likely not a Bill Lawrence as the blades are too thick to be a BL for certain.

The one in the middle on top has clear bobbins and black hex screws.
Here is an old advertisement from the 70s showing a Mighty Mite pickup that looks like the one in the Dokken video.

I think it's the Bill Lawrence & it's just the angle that makes the rails look wider.

No way.. it might be a Bill Lawrence but its not that L90. Look at it you can see the seam in the video between the bobbins. the L90 is just a big rectangle.

is it a seam or is the shadow from the rails?

if it was a shadow it would extend from the rail to the middle of the pickup not appear as a line also there would be a shadow from both rails not just one. Its not an L90.

You know, this is one of those examples of "Too much gear focus, not enough chops"
Dokkens early tone was generally crap. Just slap the Distortion isn there and roll with it. Most of what you here on disc is Distortion.
All the gear and none of the chops = crap. If you have the chops, the tone will be fine with a turn of the knobs. Not saying you don't.
Just saying Lynch sounds pretty much the same regardless of whatever tweeky little electronics change he has made over the years.

and all were pretty long relationships.

It's an old Lawrence L-90 as stated months ago. The old L-90 had raised rails (the newer one shown above does not), which is casting a shadow making the rails look bigger/thicker. The seam that you're seeing is not bobbins, but actually the Lawrence logo that stretches across the entire casing (see pic below).
