FORGOTTEN SECRET about Humbuckers | Guitar Tweakz

#humbuckers #guitarsetup

Please use headphones or good monitors for best sound.

This is something guitar players totally forget about even though it helps fine tuning your humbuckers a lot. I’m talking about adjusting the pole pieces together with the pickup height.
It is the forgotten secret about humbucker pickups.
Check out the adjustment and the tonal differences in my latest Guitar Tweakz video.

Enjoy!
