how to tell the pickup position

[Nicholasim]

on a single coil pup , how to tell which position is it ?

urgent !!

 

[Everdying]

as in whether it belongs in neck/mid/bridge?
if you dont have any kinda markings, only way i guess is to measure its output then compare with manufacturer's specs.

i don't quite get what u are asking. if u mean when the switch is in a certain posiiton and u wnana know which pups are activated, then u can try placing a metal object like a screw driver on the pups while the guitar is pluged into an amp.. when u tocuh a pup and u hear a pop then u know that pup is activated in that swtich position

like which pickup belong to neck and which belong to bridge and which belong to middle

er... they should be the same throughout... you can swap wat... UNLESS you using RWRP, and/or a hotter bridge and/or a differently spaced neck pup...

Look at the length of the wire lor

 

[Ratboy]

use a multimeter to read the impendence ( ohms )

high chance if from same set ( say 60% chance )
the mid and neck might/could read the same impendence

and the bridge should read higher impendence then the mid and neck

thats generally correct ..
unless you mod from different brands etc.
