What's the difference between Alnico and Ceramic magnets in humbuckers?

Alnico magnets generally provide a warmer, more vintage tone with a smoother high-end, while ceramic magnets offer a higher output and a brighter, more aggressive sound.

What does 'coil splitting' mean and why would I want it?

Coil splitting divides a humbucker into two single-coil pickups, providing more tonal versatility and a brighter, more articulate sound for cleaner passages or different genres.

How does DC resistance relate to a humbucker's output?

Generally, higher DC resistance indicates a higher output pickup, but it's not the only factor; winding type and magnet composition also play significant roles.
