Greetings everyone, hoping someone can help identify this pickup set of 3.
They have the Semour Duncan logo and just the sticker saying 1 or I B C
Thanks for any wisdom.

Obviously a Stack, but I'm not confident that label goes with that pickup. 1B would be a Rail or Lil' type. What does the pickup measure on a meter?
 
Looks like an old style Stack. To find out which one (hot or vintage), we'd need a DCR.
 
im gonna say the bridge pup is the old stks1b, the old classic stack (not plus) cool pups
 
I was told they were original Classic stacks from the individual I bought them from, but don't know how to verify that?
Which wires would I measure for the DCR?

Black to green, with red & white twisted and soldered together. Or, black to white, then red to green, and add the two values.

I'm a rookie with this DCR stuff, but when I added the two together I got 20.22
Sound right?
 
That would be about right for an older STK-S2 Hot Stack. Duncan lists 20.60k, but that would be within excepted tolerance.

Edit: The Classic Stack (STK-S1) and Hot Stack (STK-S2) are the same coils. The Classic is A2 magnet and the Hot Stack is ceramic magnet. So it could be either one just going by DCR. The sticker suggests that it might be the STK-S1 Classic, bridge, wound by Connie Rocha.

Although, Connie did singles. It might be a poorly stamped "O", which would be Oti Mora, who wound stacks.

I believe the Hot Stocks had the strip instead of individual pole pieces coreect?
shopping.webp
 
I'm trying to wire the neck and middle in a strat with a Arcane triple clone in the bridge with series/parallel for each but having trouble.

Does anyone know of a wiring diagram that would be compatible with these? I tried one on the James Tyler website but can't get it to work correctly?

Appreciate all the help guys.​
