Killed_by_Death Posted February 10, 2021 Posted February 10, 2021 42 AWG is common, if they want to make it HOT they might use 44 AWG to get more wraps in the same housing 1 Quote

BigRedX Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 Use what you want. Experiment. The gauge of the wire is only one part of a number of variables that go to make up a pickup. Quote
