the 59 and jazz use different #42 wire so thats part of it and the wind is different too so thats probably the other part. ive compared jazz and 59 magnets and i didnt notice a significant difference
Yes. The insulation thickness affects the coil dimensions. Two coils wound with the same wire but different insulation thicknesses will "build" differently. At the same number of turns and identical winding pattern, the wire with the thicker insulation will give you wider coils.
