between 9-10k for both
Okay, unwind a 11.4k down to that range. Easy to do.

I sold the one off my '89 4003S some time ago . Still have the original treble pup which I'll keep for the heck of it. My playing style just doesn't get along with the earlier button top pups. I'd get all kinds of nasty clicking/popping transients so I went with a '92 toaster and '06 high gain. After MUCH experimentation - EMG, horseshoe, HB1.... :P
'89 4003S, '92 4001CS, '93 4003S/8
