I can remember Fender touting the RW/RP pickups on the multi-neck steel
guitars, then why not on the JazzM which is inherently noisy as hell....thanks

clear yet, but all the original Jags and Jazzmasters had a neck pickup that was
reverse wound, and reversed magnetic polarity for hum cancelling when both

Ah, thanks, you've pretty much saved the day.
There are two part numbers, but is that parts list
from the first production run, or later? Your price
list is what I had at one time (and as noted to
Brian, I no longer have it). $27.50 rings a chime
in my memory, as does the new price of $339.00.
And as you've noted yourself before, pickups in the
very early days were handwound, and varied a lot
from one to the next, thus accounting for your
measurements.
