I just wired up my S/S/H with a split in the humbucker and I'm wondering if this sounds correct. When I split the humbuker and use it in combination with the middle pickup, it sounds really out of phase. As far as I know the magnet is in the right direction, so is that a normal function for that position?

Does this sound like it's out of phase?

Instead of connecting the bridge humbuckers red/white wires (SD codes) to ground, run a jumper to the bridge positions black lead. This will leave the adjacent coil hot and should cure your phase issues.
When mixing SD pickups with Fender pickups it is often nessessary to use the green as hot and the black for ground. Rewiring the bridge HB to these specs will also cure your phase problem but doing it this way you will want the red/white wires connected to ground instead of to the black (hot) lead.www.soundclick.com/failedgrace

Originally posted by HolyDirtif the magnet was the wrong way it wouldnt give an out of phase nasaly tone, it'd give you hum. does it sound split when you using just the humbucker?
The magnet influences the phase of the signal, but that can be corrected through wiring. Hum-cancelling most however have opposing magnetic fields though.::::To sound reinforcement engineer::::

Could we please have everything louder than everything else ? ...
