Back in '03 or so I bought a used Little'59 -- the original style with all the wires coming out of one end. Its label says "59 B C". So yeah, Duncan has used different label formats over the years.

There's some small chance that it's a custom build from Duncan's Custom Shop, but those usually have a decal or a stamping.

But the DCR you measured is pretty close to a Little'59. And the tonality is quite different between the Little'59 and the JB Jr. Despite the L'59's high DCR, it sounds kinda like a PAF-style pickup. So if you think it's probably a Little'59 you're probably right.

I would be very surprised if that is not Shoreline Gold.

I was thinking about that white too, but thought if this is an American roadhouse they had a tortoise shell pickguard for the white pearl models.. Hence why I believe it's Shoreline Gold :)
