I used to have a similar humbucker to this one that somehow got misplaced. Now, a new buddy of mine give me this one without preamble.
I just unsoldered the chrome cover to see if it had an shiny AlNiCo magnet, which it does. But I've never seen a Gibson pickup without the metal braided lead and this one is plastic. It measure 7.27 kΩ and with a bit of researching the PAT No # 2 737 842, it seems made in '84. I discovered VH about that year
I've a Koa superstrat-type guitar that has never gelled with any neck humbuckers —they're always too bassy. So I may swap out the installed vintage-wind, A2 Burstbucker (which feedbacks wickedly, maybe it could use a bit of crazy glue into the windings, they're cheap to buy used anyways) for this pickup.
