Hi, I have two guitars with 57/08 pickups. The first guitar pickups, sound like 57/08s. The bass pickup is
darker than the treble and vice versa. This is due to the position. Volume and freq are the same. Resistance is Bass, 8022 ohms, Treble is 8217 ohms. Expected readings for this pickup. Very good sounding pickups.
Onto the next guitar. Engraved 57/08. The treble and bass pickups dont sound similar or like the other guitars pickups. I tested using a Klon buffer and a fixed EQ amp with the same speaker. Guitars are setup the same.
Resistance is as follows, Bass is 7300 ohms, Treble is 9000 ohms. I know resistance does not tell the whole story. This Bass pickup is magic. The treble pickup is bright, almost thin. What are these pickups?
Treble is not a McCarty treble, I have that in another guitar. Wiring checks out. Miss labeled?
