Just a small question, as I really like the output of my cool rails and I don't want to lose how hard it pushes my amp when I switch it for a full sized humbucker. I notice that the single coil sized ones usually have a significantly higher DC resistance than the pickups they are modelling. The lil 59 is over 17k!
Now, I know that DC resistance isn't the only element that makes output, but are they just wound a little warmer to make up for the smaller area the pickup has to 'read' the string? The cool rails neck is sitting at about 9.2k, should I go for a full size in about that range, or will the standard 7.5-8k in a full sized bucker be just as hot?
