I haven't found any good specs on Epiphone pickups yet, but you had mentioned that both the Standards and the Classics had factory installed Alnico V's?
Yes they do. If you want I will sell you a Seymour alnicoII neck and custom custom bridge in Zebra. do not do much for me sound wise. Back to the Epi the ones in the classic should have a sticker that says something like HB6N(open) LP CLS neck and on the bridge something the same only the word hot in there . I will measure the dc if you like latter got to go to work. I guess the cls stands for classic do not know if it means the 57 classic I do not thoink it does. think in means classic model guitar both are A5 for sure maybe wound different ? sound louder than the covered.
