Washburn KC90 question

[ronfuzz]

hello all,
quickish question about my washburn kc90. i've heard that the neck pickup is an alnico pro II but ive also seen some posts that say its a staggered custom....
i had a sneak at the underside of the mid and it has a sticker showing "5R" which means its a staggered custom? (R being makers name???!!!!)
i love the sound of this guitar, it's saved my bacon many times over many years in the studio and would be most grateful if anyone could clarify what those blighters are!
 many thanks.

I think it is a Custom Staggered. I beleive the "R"denotes its RW/RP design.

Re: Washburn KC90 question

would anyone else be able to shed some light on this?
it certainly looks like a custom staggered, but washburn forum think its the alnico... its the sticker that confused me cos of the 5.... :dunno:
many thanks
