      Duncan doesn't publish the # of turns, or at least, I've never seen that from any SD source.

        If you know the wire gauge and dcr you can use algebra to determine the length of the wire. There's a blog about it.

          To be honest, SSL-5 is that different from usual strat pickups all that info is a bit meaningless. It sounds like it does, and you can't really know how by any of that data.

            SSL-5 wire is the orangey-copper color, if that helps

              It's also pretty full on the bobbin. Like, enough that I wasn't sure if I was going to be scraping the wire when putting on the pickup cover. :P
