Confused with this SD old pup...

[Djuango]

Hi everyone! I'm new to the forum and I'm a little bit confused about an SD pickup... I recently bought one of those nice Korean Squier Tele guitars from the 90s. It came with a pair of SD pickups and after looking up some information about the label (3R) and reading the article "Seymour Duncan Pickup Labels Pre-2002", it seems that they could be a pair of Quarter Pound STL3 and STR3 pickups (made by Connie Rocha), but... here's the problem: I'm not at all sure because the bridge pickup only has an output impedance of 6.85 kohm, far from the supposedly high impedance of these pickups. There is no other Tele pickup model with that label (3R), but the impedance obviously doesn't match...I don't understand, I'm lost!
Could anyone help me guess which pickup I actually have or what's going on? Thanks in advance and best regards from Spain!

The sticker is a bit of a mystery. It clearly isn't a Quarter Pound. Their pole pieces are huge. (1/4" to be exact.) The look, DCR, and copper baseplate point to an Alnico 2 Pro. Which would be a cool pup.

Note also, my pre-2002 list doesn't even have an AII Pro Tele bridge listed, so who knows.

But the sticker doesn't match. :dunno:

right, not sure what that is, but it is not a qp tele pup

It could be Vintage '54 set but not sure.

Thanks for all your answers and info! Yep...mysterious pup (or label, who knows!) but at least now I can completely rule out the QP option as I suspected. I'll continue trying' to guess which model is...THX

how does it sound?

 

[Djuango]

I still don't know how it sounds because the guitar gone directly to the bench...but, looking more closer to some details (wire's colour, magnets) I think it could be a Jerry Donahue one!
The yellow cotton wire and those 2 central magnets slightly elevated take me to that option...because mine has these 2 same things!
I think I finally got it! (forgetting the label, of course...)

A JD should measure around 7.7k. It would be cool if it was one, (my favorite Tele pup), but that reading is pretty far off.

Actually I measured again the pup with another device and now it says 6'96k...that's nearly 7k
Maybe a Five-Two?

(yellow cotton wire too... but totally flat poles in this case, but...yep, the reading could match)
I think it could be my last option...
