Hello! I have this stock SSS pickups on my vintage strat and I really love them. I'm thinking of building another pickup with the closest specs possible so I can install it with my other strat. I have measure the RLC values using DER EE DE-5000 LCR Meter. I got the following values: Neck DCR - 5.945k ohms Neck Ls - 2.414H Neck Cp - 116.31pF Mid DCR - 5.948k ohms Mid Ls - 2.400H Mid Cp - 118.23pF Bridge DCR - 5.983k ohms Bridge Ls - 2.465H Bridge Cp - 110.86pF Basically, it looks like they have same winding and specs. Here's the photo of the pickup: Here are my questions: 1. Do you have an idea what type of wire is this? For reference, the spool on the left side (reddish) is a Schatten Poly Nylon which I got from Stewmac. The spool on the right is a Polyurethane Enameled Wire from Aliexpress. 2. What's the best strategy to wind a pickup with the closest possible specs? Do I need to give more priority in achieving the same Ls Inductance? Any thoughts and suggestions? Thank you!
