I just pulled the covers off a pair of 137/138 Shaw pick ups.
Odd set of Zebras is what I found?

The neck humbucker is the usual "Zebra." The bridge is a "reverse zebra."

Cool stuff! :dude:

They intentionally wound black and cream bobbins and mixed them together before assembly. They wanted a mixed option like 50's. They only came with nickle or gold cover option and there could be any color bobbins underneath. It was always cool to find out!!
