Probably he changed the poles.
Demon has one row of flatheads and one row of allen heads. I don't think he installed slugs.

Who cares ?
Back in the day the guy was a God.
His playing in the Stars video is unbelievable.
Unfortunately all I see from his now is totall shreddy bollocks with no real skill, terrible tone and no regard for the song.
He also seems to have turned into an unlikable human being.
Real shame as I, like most, worshipped him in my youth.
George did a clinic for a store I worked for in 2009. I asked him specifically what the pickup is. He said it's a '59. I tend to believe him because even after hearing him live on several occasions, his tone was drastically different than what it was with the Demon or Distortion.
Maybe the pic was taken after or before 2009, but that's what he told us. His words were (at first) "I don't know, haha." Then he said the bottom had "SH-1b" on it. He said "I just told them to put something vintage in it." But George changes out pickups quite frequently, so it's probably something else in the pic. Currently I think he is using his own pickups (I forget the name).
Is he the guitarist that played on the We're Stars song with Dio on vocals? I've never seen the video, just heard it on the radio.
