Sorry if this has been covered before, but I can’t find it.  I have recently acquired this guitar and I haven’t seen any others with these pickups.  Guitar has a 1987 serial number.

Thanks in advance.

Don't recall seeing Heritage branded covers, before. Kinda cool. Is that a roller bridge on a wooden base?

I've done that before to get a larger string spread.

I have to add that the plastic covers on my H575 are plain,without the Heritage logo.

Coming back to this topic,i was going through some old Heritage publicity today and came across

a write up reprinted from SOUNDS dec.10th 1988 by Garry Cooper (?) about the H575 which described 

the pickups (shown with the "The Heritage" written across the bridge pickup as being ACT humbuckers.

I cant find any info on ACT,is this just another brand name for Schallers?

Are these active pickups?  I’ve heard of active pickups with that nomenclature.

They dont appear to be,certainly not on my H575,nor mentioned that way in the SOUNDS review.
