The 6.9K Ohms wind is typical of the mid to late 1960s and gives the pickup a clear smooth tone. As with original vintage Tele neck pickups, it has been potted in lacquer which helps contribute to its high end treble performance. Note: Not being potted in wax can lead to microphonics and squealing at high volumes so if you play LOUD or with a distortion pedal this may not be the pickup for you.
