Stacked humbuckers

Re: Stacked humbuckers

OK so, how about winding them in the same direction? Same deal or would turn things around?

No, there is no escape. For a humbucking effect you must have either opposite magnetic polarity in the coils or no magnet(ic field) in one of them.

It works by out-of-phasing the noise electrically (the coil) and then out-of-phasing again via the magnet to get the signal you want back into phase.

So if you reverse the coil you get the hum back.
