7-string pegasus resistance value on SD site looks strange

[Frebnedzo]

Perpetual Burn and Pegasus seem to have roughly same description and including roughly same DC resistance. Pegasus has a 7-string version, which is what I'm looking for, but the 7-strings resistance jumps by nearly 20% over the 6-string (Custom5, Full Shred, JB and 59 are all more like what you would expect from 7-->6, ~13%). So I'm wondering if I should go custom shop for a 7-string Perpetual Burn or just ignore the resistance measure and try Pegasus???

Guitar : schecter jazz-7, jazz in the neck and currently a JB in the bridge.
I wanted to do some more djenty style chugging and I THINK a less scooped bridge pickup than JB would be good start of chain
Despite that... my usual sound is more fusiony/overdriven blues, (think Scott Henderson) so there should be some PAF
I want balance between the neck and bridge, tonally (scooped/clear) and colume... so I'm leaning away from Custom 5 and towards PB and Pegasus. heck, (even 59 or 7-string screamin demon).
I use the pickups split and want a little more punch in the bridge than neck.... (7-string 59/hybrid looks good but the eq chart shows more mid-hump than I'd want).

So 7-string Perpetual Burn looked ideal, but Pegasus seems to already available, except for the reported resistance

Well, there is more wire due to the extra string, so it would make sense that there is 1/6th more resistance. Resistance really isn't a great measure of how a pickup will sound, though. To me, the PB is quite a bit brighter than a Pegasus. A Pegasus is also more versatile, and suited to more gain range, if that kind of thing is important to you.

Thanks, I probably should have just asked for pickup advice instead of doing math on resistance . I am looking for more 'balance' with the Jazz in the neck than the current JB. Scoopier and a little less gain.
'gain range'... what I want at the limits, clean bridge tone with some vocal quality... like a telecaster. (I may split for this tone)... at the other end, dissonant chords that are audible through high gain distortion as in Korn and Periphery. High gain will probably be a boutiquey stompbox, deizel vh4-2 or empress heavy into fender clean amp. So... thinking Pegasus and then Sentient suggests itself to close the gain gap, though I really like the Jazz.

I'd say keep the Jazz, and just go with the Pegasus for what you want.
