Here are the current specs (from another page at www.fender.com):

Texas Special Strat Bridge Pickup:
DC Resistance: 6.50K - 7.10K Ohms
Inductance: 3.58Henries

Texas Special Strat Middle Pickup:
DC Resistance: 6.5K
Inductance: 2.6Henries

Texas Special Strat Neck Pickup:
DC Resistance: 6.2K
Inductance: 2.4Henries

Your measurements are a little low (were measured out of the guitar?), but, dude, I think you are fine.

Use them, I hope you like them.

My older ones are 6.32 neck, 6.42 middle, and 7.63 bridge! Looks like I got a hotter bridge pup.

I don't know why I didn't notice it before, but it seems that your PU's have a beveled edge. I don't believe that TexSpecs have a bevel, my TexSpec Tele's definitely don't. But if your PU's are older, maybe they used to have a bevel.

The older ones don't have beveled magnets. I don't know when they started beveling them, however.

It's the same with the '57/'62 Pickups; older ones aren't beveled.

I prefer the looks of the unbeveled.

That's the thing... I don't think that the newer PU's are beveled, either. My TexSpec Teles, purchased in November, are not beveled.

they are not all like that. only the bridge one is indeed beveled and has the orange wire...i dont know what pickup could it be. rest of them are not beveled and the wire is purple. hopefully they are texas specials.
if not what other pickups look like that? what is their value? are they worth somethin, cause i was thinkin of gettin rid of them...and go for a sure deal...new from the distributor
