Beginning in 1978, Hondo worked out a deal to become one of the first import manufacturers to offer optional American-made DiMarzio pickups. While the catalog referred to them as (and pictured) Super IIs, they actually used a different pickup, designed specifically for Hondos, called the K-10. However, it is very similar in specs to a Super II.
D.C. Resistance is around 8.7 to 9k Ohms. They can be identified by their screw-less pole pieces and gold baseplate with four screws and "DiMarzio Pickups, Made in U.S.A." engraved. Earlier (pre-1981) examples have legs with clipped edges and convex polepieces, whereas later examples have triangular shaped legs and perfectly flat polepieces.
