600K$ Fender Telecaster, How to ANSYS Sim. and Find Short in Bridge Pickup Coil

      I found an classic electric guitar with bridge pickup gives no resistance measurement ,it acts as a open circuit , continious short inside , shorted coil acts as a bass filter and people adds an 0.0035 microfarad cap  to their other guitar bridge pickups to get the same high pitched notes. Shorted bridge pickups sometimes gives out no sound, sometimes weak sound, sometimes high volume and high pitched sound like this. I want to find where the short can be in this single coil.

      Guitar is a 1954 Fender Telecaster, owned by greatest unknown guitarist Roy Buchanan and guitars name is Nancy !
