Stock strat pickups are 5.5k to 6.5k ohms. Tele lead pups are around
7k, stock Gibson humbuckers are also around 7-8k resistance.

A lot of the new custom pickups are overwound to far beyond this, up
to 10-14k. They sound like **** IMO but some people like to clobber
the amp imputs.

Okay, what are typical inductances and DC resistances of wirewound pickups?
What kind of numbers should I expect to see?

There's a 'tone chart' on the S. Duncan site with DC resistance
and Resonance peak of all their pick ups.
