misterdistortion Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 I popped a second hand set of these into my Geddy Lee Jazz as an experiment but they seem to be out of phase with themselves. The magnets had come away from the rear of the pick ups when I got them and since putting them back certain strings sound hollow. Any one had this problem and how did you fix this?

songofthewind Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 Take the magnets off and flip them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterdistortion Posted July 12, 2020 Author Share Posted July 12, 2020 (edited) I have tried flipping them but where you usually have 2 magnets, 1 either side on the back, these have 4, 2 end to end either side. Apart from trial and error, taking the pups out, flipping one magnet at a time and reinstalling I'm at a loss. There has to be a better way?

ahpook Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 A pad or phone with a built-in magnetometer and Physics Tookbox Suite installed would tell you the orientation and strength of the magnets. I've used it for just this purpose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
