hi
i am thinking of making modifications on a cheap learning guitar that i own..the pickup configuration was single-single-&2 singles arranged together
..(all 4 have diffrnt switches).the 2 singles together (in bridge posn)have a thin common bar of magnet (below)supporting the pole pieces in a humbucker type arrangement while the other 2( neck and mid) pups have a fat common bar of magnet attached to them..( this magnet is in a supine or horizontal position).however i want to convert all singles to 2 humbuckers (1 at neck & other at bridge).so would it be wise to cut the magnet into half (since it is a thick one)and arrange this in humbucker style ie side by side (in vertical position )???could any1 plz explain to me the effect it would have on the magnet and the tone(ie brighter or dull)??
thanx
