Darwin,
These are the same pickups that went into the Nighthawk in '83 and the Skyhawk after that. They may have ended up in the S-500 later on, but that's a model I don't know much about. In '82 the S-500 pickups had square ends. They looked like a narrow version of the large MFDs used in the SC-1 and SC-2. I can't find any pictures of my S-500, so I will take some later and post them.
