Mag swapping help

I've googled and checked the forums...but i still need help with this.


I'm trying to use an A5/A8 combo in my Prails pickup. I originally put the A5 in between the rail and P90 with the A8 on the outside and it made the rail weak as hell. So then I swapped the two positions. Now the rail is strong, but I think the P90 is out of phase with itself.

Are the magnets in a P90 supposed to attract each other or repel each other?

EDIT: Okay...i don't think the problem is that the pickup is out of phase...it's just very weak on the B and G strings...

the Rail is powerful on all strings, but the P90 is significantly weaker on the B and G strings than any other. When I had the mags swapped and rail was weak, the P90 was powerful on all strings. Please help me figure out what's going on.

In P-90's the magents sit repelling, not attracting. If they are and you still have problems, flip both of them, so they still repel, but the opposite way.

Thanks so much blueman....I flipped the one mag and everything sounds great now.

The bridge PU is out of PHase with the neck...but that's not a big deal as i have a push pull for that already installed and I don't usually use the bridge/neck setting anyways.
