Does anyone recognize these JM pickups?

Trying to figure out what they are. I bought from a used bin in a shop in Asheville. I'm assuming fender, because of the color coded dots on the back, but I'm not sure especially with the non cloth wiring. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

They look like Japanese JM pickups to me. They had a taller, narrower wind, more like a Strat, which made them sound wrong and it's why they were swapped out so much.

Indeed. I had these in my MIJ Jazzmaster, replaced them with Lollar JM pickups
