Compare your meter readings to published stats for Fender CS and Pure Vintage pickups.
In July 2021 weather, the heat could also have a small bearing in the readings that you get.
Inspect the ends of the rod magnet polepieces. Some variants have flat ends to the rod. Some have that end bevelled off slightly on a bench grinder and, then, polished to tidy up any burrs and marks.
Depending on the vintage era being replicated, the length of the rod magnets provides a clue. The colour of the vulcanised fibreboard plates is also significant.

Non bevelled pole pieces which are staggered so from a look online I guessing they are texas specials?
Don't know if fact but have just read online that texas pickups have a red / blue dot on the underside of the pole pieces of the neck and bridge position.
The formula is: 1/total resistance = 1/pickup resistance + 1/pot resistance
So if you want to rearrange it to derive the pickup resistance from the measurement, pickup resistance = 1/(1/measured resistance - 1/pot resistance).

Pretty sure they are texas from the readings.
Thanks again
