Hey @scottosan can you confirm that bar magnets in humbuckers are like diagram 2?
One reason I ask is that it confuses me that people say to push a new magnet end to end with the old to see if it sticks and that is the proper direction. In my mind, that would mean the magnet would have to be upside down, as the like orientation should repel one another, not stick end to end.
Can you confirm the proper way to ensure your magnets are oriented in your pickups when swapping them in and out? I have been swapping so many in and out of these I am going to just put them back stock and now want to confirm some things.
I appreciate your expertise in advance!
