Weird Dearmonds

[parker_knoll]

Anyone know what these weird Dearmonds are?

The magnet assembly is vintage correct but the pickup bases appear to be plastic. Is this some kind of 80s Dynasonic reissue from a Gretsch?

Except for that oversize spacer in the top pic, I don't see anything out of the ordinairy..? What guitar are they on?

 

[parker_knoll]

i thought they had metal bases. forget it, i'll delete the thread

i wonder what they are then and from what era

Does the front face of these Dearmonds look like normal ones or do they look more like the ones Martin Used on their very limited Hollow bodies with the wedge crossing the front face?

 

[parker_knoll]

i think they're totally normal

I'll just quietly slink away

nope, we're going to keep this thread going, and keep posting questions and remarks.

Yeah, spill the beans. Guitar? Pickup DC resistance readings? How does the whole thing sound?

from a weird guitar on ebay. perhaps worth buying for the pups alone?

pickups + Bigsby are certainly worth at the very least that opening bid!

absolutely! it wasn't up very long, however. and also I'm in Europe so not very economic for me.
