Washburn Status Pickups

Has any one got a photo of the pickup wiring for active status j type pickups. Im trying to install two NOS active pickups but not sure what wires go where. A photo of the back of a pickup on an original would be just the job.

Are they active ?

Status themselves fit passive units ; only the preamp is active.

Could be Washburn went a different road. If that's the case your active pickups should be 3 wires , black/white and red.

Black and white run to the blend pot. Red is your power feed, likely they will tie in with the battery clip red before joining the preamp.
