Greate Pete!
We should continue with this Stuff. As you already know I will agree with your conclusions on the MMK45. But I'm not sure if the Protomatic IV is really the same as Proto-V and Smooth crash. But as long as I have not such a PU for analysis...
Here is some additional stuff:
1. Protomatik II out of a PE-460 available at my desk:
Bridge-PU has 3-Conductor for out of phase purpose.
Magnets: No clou, there is no sticker on it and the magnet itself is quiet.
Electrical Data: R=8.45kOhm, L=4.88H, C=109pF (assumption due to missing tester)
Compared with the spec data of a Classic Power I and II Resistance and Inductance is nearly the same
2. AL-VII out of my ES-700
Elecrical data : R=12,6kOhm L not yet measured, will be done at the next string change.
No Marking on the backplate. Slugs are running through the backplate as known from Gibsons PAFs
3. MMK53
I've got only this picture:
4. Pickups from my YS-350
Data not yet measured. Will be done at the next string change.
Hope this helps!
