So looks like there were 4 different pickups in LS50s called LS Dynamic within a year’s time. We can call them 1.1, 1.2, 2.1, 2.2.

They first appeared in LS50s in 1981.

"LS Dynamic I" had hexagonal pole pieces,

The first version (1.1) had a "T" stamp on the base plate and "Paent Applied For..." in black ink. 1.1
