    I would just swap the black/green wire connections on the neck Duncan Jazz and call it a day.

      I went ahead and flipped the magnet. Wasn't difficult at all. Do I need to re-melt the wax?

        Technically yes, you should. But if it doesn't sound microphonic, you may not need to? If you have a heat gun you can usually heat the area up you need enough to reflow the residual wax. You can also take a regular old candle and melt it onto the pickup as well if need be. Focus on the bottom side away from plastic parts. Try and not get any hotter than is needed to melt the wax. You really only need it to reflow between the base, the magnet, and the bobbin. The coils are not really of concern.

          no, dont bother. just make sure the base plate is snug. i never reheat the wax after a mag swap.

            I don't reheat the wax either. The coil should still have enough wax.

              It's working as it should now. Thanks guys! Can't say I would've figured this one out myself.
