The impedance of the hum bucking coil must be considered as that is in series with the voice coil too.
As stated, do NOT separate the one voice coil to humbuck junction.
I would shoot for a primary impedance of 7 to 10k ohms with a secondary or 4 to 6 ohms impedance.
This would be a simple open frame transformer and should be available, still. If near that value is not available, multi-impedance one may cover the desired range too, but will be a somewhat more costly.
Settle for less than 5 watts, more likely three watts.
