when you ruin the guitar ---- you can send it to me
You don’t have a compass?Not yet....I'm gonna buy one later just for this experiment
To ruin the guitar, I would have to convert it to 25.5" scale and add single coils....
When you do that send it to me...I love 25.5 and single coils!
You don’t have a compass?
What the ....?
Why haven’t you made one then?
It only takes a few minutes, a pin, a magnet, a small shallow container for a little water, and a cork(they’re not just for sniffing...I promise)....
WTF man?!?!
Well, that's good because the Humbuckers are a bust for me...
So, in theory then, rotating either pickup - 180° - would restore the phase between them????
No. This is a common misconception. The magnet has to be rotated in respect to its own coil.
Simply rotating the whole pickup doesn’t change that.
When you rotate the pickup you rotate both the magnet and the coil. They cancel each other out. You need to rotate either but not both.Hmmmmm....
