Hello,
Would anyone know the average Gauss reading for a standard Fender single coil pickup?
I saved this from a post a while back.
It's just magnets in general.
Here's a few standard readings taken right at the end of the magnet
A2 - 578
A3 - 500
A4 - 700
A5 - 680
A5 ISO - 687
A6 - 724
A8 - 1456
A9 - 1620
Ceramic 8 - 1400
PAF Magnet original charge - 460
PAF Magnet Full Charge – 660

I know this is an old thread but I'm a new member.
The readings I've taken of sets of vintage (1960 and 1964) Strat pickups were mostly all between 630 and 710 gauss measured at the flat end of the magnet.
I have more data of older Strat pickups logged but not readily available at the moment
The readings T posted are for bar magnets ,Not rod magnets like in a strat ,which fully charged are over 1000 gauss
Anyway thanks for posting your results
