Fender Original Jazz Bass Pickups

Evening all.

I have a 2004 Fender American Standard Jazz (the one with the S-1 switch) and have been looking online for the specs to see if the pickups are the same as the current Fender Original Jazz Bass Pickups seen here: https://shop.fender.com/en-GB/parts/jazz-bass-parts/fender-original-jazz-bass-pickups/0992123000.html?rl=en_US

Does anyone know if Fender used these pickups in the American Standard before they started fitting the Custom Shop 60s as standard? And if not, how do they compare to the pickups in the 2004 American Standard?

The reason I ask is I have two Jazz basses - an American Standard and an MIJ '66 reissue. I would like to change the pickups in both. I'm pretty much set on the CS60s for the American Standard so was thinking if my current USA pickups are the same as those in the link above I could just transfer them into the '66 MIJ. I'm after something period correct for the '66 MIJ and as these pickups are now used in the American Vintage series they should fit the bill.

Thanks in advance 🙂
