The Great Pickup Output Comparison:  What They are In and What They Put Out

The Great Pickup Output Comparison: What They are In and What They Put Out

This video has no playing in it. But does have the readings of virtually every guitar in the lineup that has different types of pickups. Absent from this video will be the 2007 Custom, with it's 490R/498T pickups, the 2020 Custom, with it's '57 Classics (which read almost identical to the 2011 Traditional's outputs) and the R8, with it's BB2 pickups that are almost identical to the BB2 in other guitars (the reading on the R8 are 8.0K in the neck/8.02 in the bridge, just in case you were wondering). I'm listing the time stamps below if you're wondering about a particular type of pickup and it's readings.
