Default Guitar Pickups Coil Ringing Test Electric Testing PUP

So, I've disassembled another Epiphone humbucker pickup of the same basic
type/series (but instead the neck pickup), and the Ringer Test results are
the same (4 rings whether assembled or disassembled).

Assembled pickup DC resistance 10.8k ohm, inductance 4.7H.

Disassembled pickup, coils separated from magnet, frame plate.. individual
coils inductance 2.3H

Bare coils, no screws or core plugs.. 830mH each.

I know there are at least a few participants here who have guitars, so I
was wondering if anyone here has attemped a Ringer Test (inductor Q) on
guitar pickups.
