These are from a 2003 American Standard and I don't remember if I upgraded them or left them stock. I tended to do upgrades, but may have left this one stock. The middle pickup is acting up on a few of the poles and I want to replace it with the same pickup or a suitable alternative. I'm hoping the numbers are a clue for someone who knows their Strat pickups.

Does anyone recognize these as stock American Standards or otherwise?

Any and all help appreciated.

can you post a DCr reading and what color is the coil wire.......bright gold, new penny looking or or dark purple-ish?

and the leads colors, (black of course) which are yellow and which are white.

I thought about that after I had her buttoned and tuned her up, but didn't take a reading.

The coil wire looks like a new copper penny and the cloth wire is an off white. If I get a chance, I'll try to take it out again today and take resistance readings for each coil and post pictures of the uncovered coils.

ETA:
N - 5.68K (Pictured)
M - 5.72K
B - 5.98K

I have another set that looks exactly like these that read:

N - 5.88K
M - 6.12K
B - 6.10K

Thanks man. I was pouring over Fender CS pickup resistances last night and I was leaning toward those as well. Appreciate your help with them.

I thought I bought some Abby wounds years ago, but it seems I was making stuff up in my mind. Or, I have them stashed somewhere and I'll run across them eventually.

Thanks again.
