what's with my "Evenly Voiced harmonics" without a Duncan baseplate? EVH

[rosssurf]

I have this EVH pickup that I am not using and would like to know more about it. Can anyone tell me why the baseplate does not have the SD logo?

Was this a stock pickup in some run of Eddies striped guitar or something.

This is now known as the "78 model" from Seymour Duncan, it used to be called "Evenly Voiced Harmonics" but I think the Evh Empire caught on to the name and Duncan had to rename it. A great hot Paf type pickup, right around 9K DC resistance, Alnico II magnet, and good for a lot more than just EVH tone chasing. A lot of Duncan custom shop pickups from that time had the baseplate with no logo.

Was this a OEM for a certain guitar model?

custom shop models didnt used to have stamped baseplates sometimes, nothing to worry about

This. I'd have to look, but I don't know if any of my custom shop pickups have the logo on the base plate.
