Re: Why are cheap pickups rubbish?
The ones I looked at and measured had less resistance and inductance. I believe it is as simple as saving money by using less wire. Better poles and magnets might help.  
 
Funny thing with the some cheap pickups like on the import low end fenders/squiers(sp) they seem not to loss as much high end when you turn down the volume control.
