Axis Neck Pickup on Reverb?

[kingdoublecut]

Says its an early one. Certainly doesn't look any of the pups in my axis. There was another one for sale on Reverb 3 years ago identical to this one saying same thing. I'm thinking it is a Sterling and he just mislabeled it.

I think the square legs on the baseplate are the giveaway that it's not a real DiMarzio made Axis pickup. Weird part number on the sticker though; I wouldn't have expected a Sterling pickup to actually say "AXIS" in the part number.

Looks cheap to me. I don’t think it is real. The cream looks off too.

Lies. Fake.

I'd avoid buying anything from that seller.

I believe Ibanez had some house pickups called “axis” humbuckers. I believe that’s what this pickup is, so I’m chalking it up to misidentification by the seller. Either way, I wouldn’t buy that one looking for the Axis/EVH pickup.

I wasn't interested in buying...I just let him know it likely wasn't what he said was. Didn't take to kindly to help...LOL.

It's not even the right part code. Here's one from reverb and one from my ALHH. If there are part labels on them, neck should begin with BHNN2 and
bridge with BHWB1. Also, the lack of "Dimarzio Pickups Made In USA" stamp is a tell tale sign.

I wonder how come slugs do not align with the baseplate and pole screw do... hm...did they use 50mm speed slug robin and 53mm screw robin? interesting
