What model is it?

I don't see a model designation on the top of the pickup e.g., E66, EON etc. That is almost always a 10-1. That is also consistent with your DC Ohms reading compared to the above ...

Whether a pickup works well with an active or passive volume pedal is largely subjective. I use a Hilton VP most of the time. A couple of pickups you might similar to the 710 are the Lawrence XR16 and ...
