8.7k (full strength) - the multi-meter reading that I got on June 10, 2025 (room temp was about 68° F) .  NOTE: Remember room temperature affects the multi-meter reading - so this reading fluctuates a little bit.

NOTE: The black color of the TOP Side of the pickup is a shiny black color - as seen in picture # 1 and # 5. But it has several imperfections - mostly cloudy spots and cloudy lines. The other pictures of the TOP Side were taken in a lower light to better show the imperfections -- that's why the black color looks duller.

• More details about the condition of the TOP Side and of OTHER Areas of this pickup are below.

TOP SIDE of bobbins: There are some surface cloudy spots / scuffs (that cannot be wiped off) - some of them are short wide scratch-like scuffs, a couple of very tiny& tiny nicks (most on the upper & lower outer edges), and other imperfections (which can see seen in most of the pictures of the top side).

• NOTE hardly see any of these imperfections in pictures # 1, 6, and 7. And only some of these imperfections are visible in picture # 5. Therefore - as I stated above - please review all of the pictures.

BOTTOM Side of pickup: It has a thin layer of surface wax. This wax has several very tiny nicks / tiny (several of these nick look like brown spots), some unevenness (on the bottom edge), and a few very short light light hair-line scratches.
