Gav's Pickup Winder

[gavinturner]

In the Stewmac trade secrets section there is a tute on magnetising your new pickup pole pieces.
Its dead easy! Just need two rare earth magnets, a vice and polarity testing thingy and away ya go

Thanks for the heads up DB! I am now an expert . I have also read up on whether North up / North down matters and how to create hum cancelling pairs of winds.

For anyone who is interested (sorry this may be well known to you gurus) here is a link from seymour duncan explaining the wind and polarity modes of pickups and how they map to in phase / out of phase. The polarity at least was news to me.
