A question about pickup orientation:
Does mounting orientation for pickups matter if they are going into a left handed guitar?
Should they be turned around : so the pole that would have been under the bass E still be there, or doesn't it matter .
My believe is that is doesn't matter and if poles can be adjusted then do so accordingly, otherwise all is good.
I've seen pickups marketed as left handed.
You can get pots and tuners for lefties, that makes sense.
But in guitars as in marriage, I could well be wrong...
