Need some help ID'ing a few pickups

Hi there, I've done a bit of looking and can't seem to pin down a couple single coils made by SD.

One is a regular looking single coil and has a "3TR" sticker on the back. 3-conductor red, black and white, assuming stacked humbucker or tapped in the middle? Total DC resistance is approx. 16 Kohms, with near equal split of 8Kohm between the other wires. Magnets flush to bobbin surface, ie. non-staggered.

The other one is a tele bridge single coil with flat 1/4" poles. No conductors but there are 3 places to solder them on. Bobbin is sealed and soldered shut with a copper band. DC resistance is 13.76 Kohms across outside contacts and split evenly across the other contacts. Of course quarter-pounder comes to mind but I thought they were only made for strats.

Anyway, I always like to know what is what before I use it. thanks for any input! :)

the one in the back looks to be a quarter-pound flat, tapped.

The one up front: a quarter pound tele bridge, possibly at one point tapped.

See if SD will fix them both. I say they could be the new "antiquity III" pickup ;-)

No, it has 1/8" magnets. They both work fine, ie. good strong DC resistance , I just need to solder the leads onto the tele bridge. Thanks for trying.
