Gibson Nylon Chet Atkins pickup, first e second series

Hello everyone, here Paolo writes !!!!
A curiosity about the evolution of the pickup used by Gibson on the Chet Atkins classic nylon guitar;
perhaps this discussion has already been dealt with before here, but I try to ask you anyway.
I believe that the “smooth” pickup model without grooves is mounted on the first models,
while the second one with the grooves for the single strings was chosen for the more recent models;
was that so? and why?
