[@aaronstonebeat]

Yes, it is. Reversed winding alone would put it out of phase with the other pickups; reversed polarity puts it back into phase.

thank you, i'm learning

Well explained info, a question, if the middle pup is RWRP is it wired in the same way ?

[@aaronstonebeat]

Indeed it doesn't. But the bridge pickup can share the middle tone control if you connect two lugs on the switch, the free one and the one that goes to the middle tone control.

[@beam664]

do i need to mount the resistor to the ground of the tone?
