Hey everyone,
I recently bought this off eBay - as new, unused Seymour Duncan 59 PAF pickup for the neck position on a tele I'm making. It is labelled 59N1 so I assumed it's a neck pickup, but when I measure the output it gives me 8.1k which seems too high for a 59 style PAF humbucker. I was expecting somewhere in the region of 7.5k-7.8k. Also the wire seems to be on the short side, and the combination of these things makes me wonder if this has been a bridge pickup that's been mislabelled.
Anyone have any wisdom on these?
Many thanks in advance!
