I'm inspecting the pickups i have. I noticed a difference between 2 Fender sets. Tex-Mex (with plastic cable) and Fat 50's (with cloth cable). Can you help me decide which one is correct by looking at the winding start-ends and wire colors? I think one of the middle pickups was soldered wrong. These 2 sets must be RWRP on the middle according to their specs.

Could the fender pickup be out of phase?

The Fat Fifty set appear to be RWRP.
The middle pickup is reverse wound.
Like H said the other set are all wound the same direction with middle pickup reversed hookup wire.
To me that is not desirable.
The pickup has less noise if the start lead is grounded, and the finish lead is wired to output.
