Help me ID these SD pickups

[RickD]

Ok so I know the trembucker is a JB because I installed it myself last week. IDK what the other 2 are. If I give you the DC resistance would that help identify the model? I don't want to take them out cause they are Huge PITA to reinstall, they have 2 springs each not foam rubber pads.

Ok so the middle is 4.70 and the neck is 4.71

Hmm, that's pretty low. There should be some sort of sticker on the back, though.

Measure the JB the same way (I'm wondering if you're measuring them in an odd way) and make sure that's about 16K. If it is, is there a pull/push pot somewhere? Could be dual coil pickups shaped like singles, and they're split.

When I check the JB it's just a tad over 17k (probably because it's a trembucker). No push pull pots, just one tone one volume and a 5-way switch.

Keep in mind this is a 1994 Jackson SL1 Soloist which would have come with Jackson pickups. They didn't put SD pickups in them till 1995. SO these are all aftermarket pickups.

Kinda looks like cloth pushback wire, is it? Can you at least open up the control cavity and check ? If so, Probably ssl-1 or ssl-2?

Ok took control cover off and yes both pickups have black/white cloth pushback wire. I took a photo, maybe someone can tell if the wiring looks correct?

Wiring looks correct. Whites to the switch and blacks to ground.

The pickups are either SSL-2 (hard to tell from the pic but if they're staggered they would be SSL-1. Same pickup but staggered) or Alnico Pro 2, I think. Much more likely SSL-2 as those are really popular pickups
