Seymour Duncan Humbuckers ID help .

[shahpur]

Can anyone help me id the models of these two Seymour Duncan Humbuckers ... They seem to be older ones due to the black wiring .


As you can see from the photos the covers have been changed and one still has the sticker on the back and this has faded .. They came out of an Les Paul which I am putting some stock pickups back in.

They both read 15.9 - 16k .


Any help would be appreciated

Black wires aren't an indication of age. Braided wire would be more common on older pickups, though 4-conductor was almost always an option by request. I would presume they are both JBs. I can almost make out a JBE or JBG on the one pickup, which would be pretty rare if that's who the winder is. But it's really hard to make out. Could also be a JBL, which is more common.

the double screw pup at 16k could be an ah1 which is similar to a double screw jb

Ah, didn't catch that - the top only shows one row.
