"Patent Applied For" it was a sticker put on the first gibson humbuckers that are known for having some of the best sounds (arguably of course). Its often a term used to describe pickups that sound simmilair to those original pickupsrockinangus said:

The very first Jackson ever built, which is the white V that he had (there are two of them actually), has a Distortion / Jazz combo from what I have read. This V is not the same V that is available now. Very different guitar. The shape is even different from his first Jackson.
The Polka Dot V does have the DiMarzio Super Distortion / PAF combo. Look for model DP103 when looking for the DiMarzio PAF. The Super Distortion is model DP100.
Either pairing (DiMarzios or Duncans) will get you in the ballpark, but not exact. There are more factors to the tone than the pickups. They're just a part of the beginning. Amp, speakers, effects, all will contribute.
The covers never came off his Les Paul pickups. They have gold covers and remained on. Of his 3 main axes, the two V's had no covers and his Les Paul had covers.dnewhous said:

My thoughts exactly.... incredible player, god-awful tone. Talk about top-heavy.Aceman said:
