Identifying USA made pickups vs Korean Pickups

[Wailing]

Hi Folks

How would I know if a Starla pickup is made in the USA or Korea by visual examination?

thanks to you wise strummers

I think you'd need to take it out and look at the back. Not sure there is any visual difference looking at them while they're still in the guitar. Should be a sticker, or stamp on the back plate.

The pickup has PRS USA on the back and has metal braided wires.. I guess it is probably American

The Korean ones will have "G&B" stamped into the backplate.

Thank you folks... I will now see if they sound very different or similar
