  I took a physics electromagnetics class back in 1984 and never understood the stuff because it was so theoretical. It would have been nice if the teacher had knowledge of some practical uses for the stuff , but I only see the practical uses thanks to youtube. I don't understand how a tool and die maker knew you could amplify the noise using that setup back in the 1930s. crazy!

  why reversing the magnet on that coil reverses only the sound but not the noise?

• 
  @aaronstonebeat2 ай бұрын

  The noise is independent of the magnetic field in the pickup; it is canceled because the coils are connected out of phase. To produce a signal from the metal strings, the coils need a magnetic field. If the coils are only connected out of phase, they would be out of phase for the string signal too; by reversing the polarity in one coil, they are in phase relative to the string signal. I just had a long conversation with RamPamParam about exactly the same thing. And the answer is in the video 😉

  Hey Marc!!! Thank you so much for this super thorough, insightful and interesting explanation!!!!! I'm actually having a hard time understanding something you never mentioned in this explanation which I believe might have some significance, and was wondering whether you might have some knowledge about: I learned that in humbucking pickups, a big magnet is placed between the two coils in addition to the six magnets each one of the coils has. Do you know why that is? does it play a factor in reversing the current in some way? Thanks in advance!

• 
  @aaronstonebeat2 ай бұрын

  Many well known humbuckers indeed have a bar magnet underneath, between the pole pieces. In this case the pole pieces are not magnets but merely ferromagnetic material. The pole pieces are magnetized by the magnet. I'm not entirely sure why this is done. It is very well possible to use magnetic pole pieces, like in many single coil pickups (In fact, in most single coil guitars, when two pickups are selected, they are humbucking; because of the reversed polarity and connection of the pickups). The bar magnet has nothing to do with reversing the current in one of the coils.

  ​@@aaronstonebeat Thanks for the response! Very appreciated. Not entirely sure what you mean by "when two pickups are selected, they are humbucking; because of the reversed polarity and connection of the pickups". Wouldn't one of the coils need to have a set of magnets with an opposing polarity in order to produce this kind of humbucking effect?

• 
  @aaronstonebeat2 ай бұрын

  @@RamPamParam Yes, you are correct in that the pole pieces need to be reversed polarity in the two coils. But they already are because the bar magnet is polarized lengthwise; one row of pole pieces touches the north pole, the other row touches the south pole. So each row of pole pieces becomes an extension of the pole they touch. Basically the rows of ferromagnetic pole pieces and the bar magnet together form a U-shaped magnet.

• 
  @aaronstonebeat2 ай бұрын

  In a standard telecaster for instance, when both pickups are on they are humbucking. One pickup has north up magnets, the other one has south up magnets; and they are reverse wound (or reverse connected if they are wound in the same direction; the effect is the same).

• 
  @RamPamParam2 ай бұрын

  @@aaronstonebeat Also, correct me if I'm off, but if the magnet bar is the only actual magnet in the pickup, it would mean that each set of ferromagnetic poles would be oppositely charged (6 poles positively and the other 6 negatively). So how would this affect the explanation in your video where both sets of ferromagnetic poles are referred to as individual magnets?

  There are no ground loops in guitar wiring!!!

• 
  @DSTheEngineer863 ай бұрын

  every time I come across a guitar wiring video, it amazes me how most of the time the cons are omitted, as if there are none or they're negligible. Everything has pros & cons, we have to make compromises. For this specific wiring, yes, we do get some separation between the 2 pickups when both are selected, but what isn't mentioned is the fact that there's now a constant resistance between the input of whatever device the guitar is plugged into and ground, which could mean random noise/hum. no matter how quiet/shielded/grounded your rig is! Of course for some it will be negligible compared to the pros of the circuit, or it wouldn't be noticeable to others. Point is if someone without wiring knowledge sees this video it could mislead him to think that this circuit is superior to others, that the design is flawless. When we consider a change to a system, we must take into account all that will be affected, good and bad (sometimes subjective).

  As a string moves back and forth over its pole screw it seems the response in the coil would be the same as it moves off center in either direction. Would this not produce a 2nd harmonic? There must be a gradient in the magnetic field to get the fundamental response.

• 
  @aaronstonebeat5 ай бұрын

  That is probably a great question and on one hand I'm not sure how to answer it while on the other I'm sure you're right. But then the whole series of harmonics is present in the vibrating string to begin with so it will also be in the vibrating magnetic field.

  EXCELLENT VIDEO I am thinking of replacing the single coil pickup in my bass with a humbucking hotrails pickup. Are the base magnets in the humbucking pickup already reversed? To get the maximum lower bass sound, should I wire the humbucker coils in series? Should I feed the first coil on the left ..... and then take the exiting wire and feed the second coil on its right side? Thanks

• 
  @aaronstonebeat7 ай бұрын

  Thanks! 1) Yes, the magnets/pole pieces are reversed polarity; it wouldn't be a humbucking pickup otherwise. 2) By wiring pickups in series the output will be higher compared to wiring in parallel. In guitars this is most noticeable in the midrange of the sound. Some experimenting might be wise. 3) Which wires should be connected to each other depends on the construction of the pickups and de colour code used. Again, some experimenting might be a good thing; if you get it wrong, the pickups will be out of phase and not much bass tone will be left.

  Hi there. I have ibanez Quantum pickups from an Ibanez RG6003fm, and the wire colors are the same. However, the switch was wired completely differently. I can send you a photo if it helps how it was wired. Its a 2502N cortel 5 way, but i bought it used from someone and I'm not sure if they tried to wire it. Should your diagram be safe to follow? Appreciate any advice! New to this whole humbucker soldering stuff and of course my first attempt is with this one off 5 way switch 😅 Thank you!!

  hi, im pretty much a novice when comes to wiring and soldering. i followed your advice and refollowed to make sure i connected everything as you said. so i solder all the wires in place, all strong bonds. put guitar cable in and great position 1 works great.. 3 and 5 work great.. 2 and 4... nothing, no sound whatsover. so again i rewatched to make sure every wire was in correct position... yup all good. i did notice that there was a lot of solder under the pins with look theyre touching the chassy of the switch, would this cause the problems with 2nd and 4th position. great video btw!!
