After years of my build hanging in my basement, I'm finally getting around to doing the wiring but I'm not sure which pickup goes in the bridge and which in the neck holes. The two pickups that came with the kit appear to have exterior plastic cases that are of different depths and are deeper on one side than the other.
Am I correct in assuming that the pickup with the deeper casing (red wire attached) goes in the neck hole since the fretboard is higher up from the body surface? Assuming that's correct, which way around does the bridge pickup go since the casing is deeper on one side than the other? Does the thicker end go towards the neck or towards the bridge?
I should mention that the wiring diagram I got shows the pickup with the red wire (and thicker casing) being the bridge pickup and yellow wired PU as the neck, so maybe my thinking is incorrect?
