Ah, yes, I was mistaken. It is the dual blade single coil sized humbucker, as used on the original USA Warriors and some of the Charvel Fusions. From what I know, those are Kent Armstrong wound pickups, but not Jackson models. The wiring colors and schematics are different. I pulled them from a few guitars and there is no label underneath or any markings. I have never seen a factory installed J-200 without an active circuit. Nor have I heard of a J-200 variant. Were the Model 3DR's equipped with these dual blades?

Hey Guys! I remember that front pickup always being called "Jackson Blaze"..its a fantastic pickup. I was using the HS-3 b4 i got my pred back in 91 and i always loved the sound of the "Blaze" thru a marshall..
Does Jackson have and equivalent nowadays?

Thanks for the comments on my playing! I really appreciate it..If you are into "classic" metal with a killer modern edge..check out:

Re: Predator Specs?

First off, welcome to the board, Rick. [img]graemlins/notworthy.gif[/img] It really bums me out to hear that FMIC can't see fit to do a deal with a great musician who has played a Charvel almost exclusively for such a long time. I think it's a huge missed opportunity for them. The days of flogger are numbered, and as technical playing makes its glorious return to the forefront, Jackson/Charvel should have endorsement deals in place with shredders like you who truly appreciate their instruments. They should have immediately hooked you up with a Jackson, or better yet one of the new USA Charvels. It will be a sad day to see you playing another brand, but you need to do what's best for you. I wish you all the best & will definitely be checking out the new album. [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]
