Each score is how close a pickup is on measured specs, out of 100. The meter shows how many of those specs we could compare; a grey score means few could be. Filters cover the top 40. How scoring works

hotter output
Output compared on measured inductance; tone charts compared against each maker's average.
brighter · scooped mids
No output figure to compare; tone charts compared directly.
hotter output · Alnico V magnet: warmer, smoother · more midrange · more bass
Output compared on measured inductance; tone charts compared directly.
lower output · Alnico V magnet: warmer, smoother · more bass
Output compared on measured inductance; tone charts compared against each maker's average.
lower output · darker · more midrange
No inductance for one of them, so output leans on DC resistance; tone charts compared directly.
