Love these dearmond mount pickups.
I gues they’re either real dearmonds or T-armond 90’s from TV Jones.
Dearmond made a lot of non-2000 pickups. These probably sound like the single coils in a fender coronado

they could even be modern, like a GFS NYII.
Or one of the variants such as those made for Micro-Frets. They don't seem to have bevelled tops so they're not 210s.
Def not T-Armonds or 2Ks due to the lack of height adjustment screws.
You're probably aware of this guy who's trying to gather all the data on the 170 different models so far recorded: https://www.musicpickups.com/dearmond-un-numbered-pickups/

T-Armond 90’s are different than T-Armond 2k attempts.
If they are GFS NYII’s I would love to hear them . I am a GFS fanatic.
I am always very underwhelmed by TV Jones .

T90s have screw polepieces which is not the case here.
Re. GFS, I put one of these in a Guild Freshman that had been modded for a humbucker. It sounded good. The name is misleading because it's nothing like a P90 - it has magnetized polepieces.
