    I'm looking at an auction for a set of Jazz pups, and ther eis one day left. The pups are out of a Jazz 5 Honer and the seller claims that EMG made J pups for Honer. Anyone know if this is true? WOuld teh $15/20 they goin for be worth it?

    Hohner (and Steinberger Spirit) used EMG Select pickups.
    they were designed by EMG, but made in Korea.

    BTW, I never knew Hohner made a Jazz five-string - i think the p/ups are more likely to have come from a B Bass V.
