Make Quarter Pound SSL-4 Reverse Wind for Middle HSH Pup

[iambosco]

I have a SD Quarter Pound SSL-4 wanting to put it between two humbuckers in my Superstrat build. Already South-to-Strings, I just need it RW. According to SD's doc, I can just switch the black and white lead when wiring. Would that effectively give me a RWRP?

That’s RW, but not RP

No easy fix. Sorry champ.

Welcome to the forum! They make rwrp ssl4s. But you don't need that to get hum cancelling with stock duncan splitting.

If it is already reverse polarity in relation to your other pickups, yes you can just switch the black and white wires. If you notice that the 2 and/or positions sound extremely thin and wimpy, you will need to flip the magnet upside down in the offending humbucker(s).

Thank you all! Yes, I had to flip the magnet on the neck and I am all set.
