Hi all,
Assume we have a guitar and two humbuckers. Each humbucker has screws for one coil and slugs for the other. In many guitars, pickups are mounted so that screw coils are outer and slug coils are inner. On the other hand, the place that the wire comes out of the pickup should be probably placed towards electronics (near right bottom corner).
The problem is that some neck pickups are built so that if the wire comes out near right bottom corner, the screw coil is placed closer to the bridge and slug coil closer to the neck, which is opposite to typical configuration found in many H-H guitars. I think if it affects sound, especially in coil-split mode. Which humbucker mount direction is correct, or better?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
