Nope, not a Franz, not a DeArmond either. Don't know what they're called, they come in a different color plastic topped version too.
Not particularly characterful or powerful, nice sort of twangy single coil pickup.

A little like a Hi-LO Tron? Did other guitar makers use them?

Nothing is as wimpy as a hilotron, except maybe a broken pickup.. :mrgreen:
They're a little bit like a shy P90 with a little lack of personality...ha. Hard to describe.

I think these are the same pickups on a Hagstrom :

Walter,

They look the same to me, too. Could Hagstrom have made them? It might have been easy for Guild to buy these from Hagstrom and drop them into the black Guild mounting rings that Guild started using at the time they started using these pups.
