Can someone do me a quick favor and measure the Inductance of a Custom 60s pickup set? This is not the same thing as the resistance (which for these I believe is around 5.8K), I'm looking for the inductance (measured in Henries).

I suspect they will be near 2.2 Henries, but I'm curious. I have a set of pickups that I love and I'd like to see how the Custom 60s stack up spec-wise.

Thanks! I appreciate it.


Write to Seymour Ducan , they are very hepfull and they work often with Fender.

Write to Fender too.

Seymour was examining fender pickups when most of the current master builders were in high school.

I have a meter that measures Henries. However, I spent about $50 on it and it is grossly inaccurate. I wouldn't even want to post you results from it. It is only useful to me when measuring one pickup relative to another, so I can compare the two.

From what I am told, to measure inductance with any sort of accuracy you need to invest some serious money in the right equipment. Measuring resistance can of course be fairly accurate with even an inexpensive meter. I'm sure this is why it has become the Gold Standard for measuring pickups.
