it seems that i am hearing two sides of a coin about the pups in my AXIS
steve blucher at dimarzio tells me they are the SAME EXACT wind,magnet,etc as the EVH set from the EBMM sig guitar only they now have 4 conductor wiring?
then there are others who swear they are not the same wind at all
please clear this up

According to dimarzio and IMHO they are the same,with the exception of the wire(was 3, now is four) this was due to the super sports 5 way switch for coil tapping.
earliest EVH sets had brass plates and were not painted black. they all have a N 2 and B 1 engraved in the plate to identify the bridge and neck ones.
it should also have a dimarzio pickups made in U.S.A engraved.
the neck pup will has a round red sticker to identify the "air bucker" design.
on old originals it says "patent applied for" and on newer ones it has the patent number "#5,399,802.
