  • Jackson pickup identification

    In my spares box, I have found a black Jackson Humbucker marked LP-HM 10.8?

    Can anyone shed some light please

    That is a a mid range humbucker mid 90's.A J-50 equivelent.
    The LP and JH you would find in the mid 90's Stealth models.They are good pickups.
    Really? well screw Mark Twain.

      Some Dinkies had them, too. I had two Dinky HX models from '94 (one I've still got) and the stock pickups were a LP-HM 10.2 and a LP-38 10.0. They sounded okay but they could have used a little more gain for my taste and were yanked out. I've still actually got both sets of pups laying around here.
      I've also got a JH-2 10.8 that came out of an old Kelly XLR that was paired up with a J50N. The J50N was a great neck pup and I wish I still had that one around.
      I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.

        I had several mid 90's dinkys and the had JH-2's IMO they sounded pretty good after a tweak.

          I just looked at the ones out my Concept and the bridge matches this. LP-HM 10.8. I'm surprised anyone says they're good, cos I thought they were a load of shite. Worst pickups I ever played, even the ones in Epiphones are better.
          I'm not exaggerating, I thought the pickups in my Concept were total and utter shit.
          They're going on ebay as soon as I can be arsed, so watch out for a bargain!

          (The single coil's not going on ebay, I noticed it works very well with the Lawrence USA and Seymour Duncan humbuckers I fitted so that's staying just now....)

            I agree, toejam. I just pulled a J50N out of my Kelly XL for a SD Jazz (mainly just to match the JB). J50N sounded really good.

              When I took the J50N out of the Kelly XLR, I put it in an old string-thru Dinky HX, paired up with a Tone Zone, and it was also great... then I sold that guitar.
