Can anyone please help identify this  pickup. 


Was sold to me as Dimarzio pickup (were fitted in a bass I bought)  but after taking them out not too sure. 

Done a bit research but look similar to 80s Gotohs but not 100%, I can't get the covers.

    The design resembles a DiMarzio Model P but the conductor wire insulation colours do not follow DiMarzio convention. Also, the PCB solder points are visible whereas, on a DiMarzio, they are usually hidden under a semi-opaque resin.

    Conclusion. Your pickup is Japanese or Korean and probably from the Eighties.
    You say, atom bomb. I say, tin of corned beef.

    80s Japanese in my opinion.
