MIM SSS Strat pickup specs????

Like 7k iirc on old black plastic bobbins with twin ceramic bar magnets on the bottom magnetizing pole pieces

Compare to "authentic" traditional Fender single coins, which use fiber baseplates, 5-6k winds, and magnetic AlNiCo pole pieces without bar mags

With such pickups, DCR readings are misleading anyway. As they have steel poles instead of AlNiCo mags, they have a MUCH higher inductance than regular Fender single coils. I remember an inductance around 4H on MIM PU's tested here a long time ago: that's twice the inductance of a Fender CS69, for example (and it's even stronger than underwound T-Top's) ... Hence the darker tone of such MIM Strat PU's.
