Yea, I'm going to have to say there's something wrong with this pickup...it reads about 15.9k between red and black/ground, which is what it's supposed to read, but I spent some more time with it yesterday, comparing it with other guitars/pickups, and it just really sounds like a single coil pup...it's crazy. I'll try it in another guitar before I give up on it completely, but I'm just stumped right now.
P.S. - I bought it online from an authorized dealer on the east coast.
