The specific coil layouts can vary between manufacturer so I find it's useful to connect the pup coils together (using clip leads) in different combo's direct to a headphone amp in a nice EMF rich environment, like lots of fluoro lights. You soon hear the difference when you have a north/south pair.
Hey Weirdy, im just looking at the wiring again, my darkstars have two rows of screws, no slug. Im guessing I just find the bridge coil furthest from the saddle and then pair it with the coil that has rhe opposite magnetic pole on the neck? Im putting a temporary phase switch on the log to help find the right phase orientation.
