    It should be the same polarity and winding direction, as your mustang, so will not hum cancel. However, if you can find the polarity of your existing pickup (a cheap pocket compass will tell you if it's north up or south up ... fender messed about with this a fair bit) I can re gauss the pickup for you at no charge to be reverse polarity, then you simply swap the wires over making black 'hot' to reverse the effective winding direction

  • The dog plus... What colour? Very interested, would it go with black knight alnico 8? Any chance I could get it with black hex's to match the black knight? Thanks

  • Just re read this. Is it the reverse zebra one above?

    The dog plus is the reversed zebra with standard nickel slugs and screws, is ex demo and has some playing marks. Would pair well with a bridge Black Knight but nothing I can do about the pole colour sadly.

    The Tubesnake would work very well in HSS ... it's four conductor, so easily splits.
