Re: John Norum pickups...
My guess is a JB through a modded plexi or 800. The keyboards playing with it help define some of the notes.
Use some chorus, reverb, delay for the wet round sound. It was probably doubled.

He did. John's setup at that time was nearly identical to the guy you have listed in your sig.
i.e. Dimarzio HS3..Marshall 1987s...but John used a Boss SOD or Tubescreamer instead of a DOD 250.

I'm fuzzy on the neck & middle pickups. I'm certain they were HS series but not sure which (1/2/3) You could google it to find out for sure.
FYI, this was the same setup that carried over into "Total Control".

I found the HS3/YJMs to be PERFECT for the blackmore vibe in my malmsteen strat
The HS2s were a little warmer/weaker than the 3s going on memory...been many years since I played the 2s...
That said, I think a HS3 bridge and neck, or the YJM neck would suffice. That Norum tone was easily achievable with my Fender Malmsteen strat..really there are 4 guys whose strat tones I REALLY like...Malmsteen, Norum, Blackmore, and Uli Roth, and the HS3/YJMs did them all perfect.

Regarding the HS-3's they are NOT high output single coils.
