Wanted: Opinions Sonex 180 Deluxe Zebra Pickups

[scottknouse]

Players...
Looking for opinions and evaluations of Gibson Invader Sonex 180 Deluxe Zebra Pickups!
I have a 1983 Invader in Tobacco Burst with these installed.
Some call these "Dirty Fingers," some don't.
I've seen a lot of Invaders...First I've seen this color, how about you?
Any comments would be appreciated.
Thanks.

:ganz Interesting. I have an '80 Sonex Custom with the "Dirty Fingers" (actually says so in the owner's manual) PUs. Mine have adj. poles in both coils. Hmm. :hmm

Funny how they look like Ibanez Super 58/Super 70 pickups....which also often got stamped with a 6-digit number........

All the Dirty Fingers I have ever seen had two mounting screws and double-rows of adjustable poles.

Anyway, if you like the pickups, then keep them.

Those aren't Dirty Fingers...as stated they're missing the 2nd row of adjustable poles plus check the output on a meter...Dirtyfingers will be in the 14-15K range.

Thanks guys. I didn't think they were dirty fingers either.
Anyone have these installed? Curious to hear comments about the tone and performance of these...
