Title: Need help identifying pickup
Post by: T-Bone-BBQ on January 19, 2017, 09:13:31 PM

I bought this pickup used. The owner took it from an Ibanez prestige guitar and thought it was a Norton, but I think it's an Air Norton that's F spaced. The model number is IHW93RBKL and there's a number 803066 under the model number. The model number is odd and I can't verify for sure what it is. Any help would be appreciated.

Sounds like one of the DiMarzio IBZ OEM pickups. In which case it's neither a Norton or an Air Norton but rather a pickup that's similar.

I sent a pic of the model number and the info to DiMarzio and they confirmed it is an Air Norton they made for the Ibanez Prestige guitars, hence the slightly odd model number. It does say "DiMarzio" on the front of the pickup and no reference to Ibanez.
