In this video we'll attempt to repair this trashed vintage USA-Made 1978-1982 Dimarzio K10 pickup. The K10 was included on some Hondo guitars built in the Samick factory starting in 1978. This is an older style with 3-conductors and no adjustable pole pieces and clipped leg edges. One of the coils is obviously thrashed. It'll take some delicate surgery to fix it...that is if it's even possible.
