Equal poles repel, opposite poles attract eachother. To identify the polarities, you can take a magnet or a singlecoil pickup and hold one side of it on top of the coils of the pickup to be used for the Megaswitch wiring. If the magnets attract each other they are reversed polarity. If they repel each other they are equal polarity. If you are using humbuckers you have to identify cable assignments. Normally those are given by pickup manufacturers. You can identify these by connecting them to an electrical multimetre (set to 200 mV) . Knock the top of the coil with a magnetic item like a screw driver. If the multimetre reacts the cables belong to this coil. This can also be done acoustically by connecting the cables to an amplifier.  \nIf the correct coils are on but the sound is out of phase (thin and nasal) cables are tobe changed as follows: single coil pickups – exchange hot and ground wires.  \nHumbuckers – disconnect the serial link wires, combine former hot and ground wiresand connect instead of former serial link. Connect the wires according to the  \nidentifications made before to hot and ground.  \nRecommended polarities to receive hum cancelling:  \n\n| Pickups\u003Cbr>bridge mid neck | Polarity\u003Cbr>St M H | Type |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Single Coil / Single Coil | N S | E, T, S, M |\n| Single Coil / Single Coil / Single Coil | N S N | E, S, M |\n| Single Coil / Single Coil / Humbucker | N S SN | E, S, M |\n| Single Coil / Humbucker | N NS | E, T, S, M |\n| Humbucker/ Humbucker | NS SN | E, T, S, M |\n| Humbucker/ Humbucker | NS NS | P* |\n| Humbucker/ Single Coil | NS N | E, T, S, M |\n| Humbucker / Single Coil / Humbucker | NS S SN | E, T, S, M |\n\n* for Megaswitch P it might be necessary to turn the magnets of one of the pickups to get the wanted configuration. We highly recommend the have this done by an experienced guitar tech!  \nThe mentioned configurations can also be reversed. N = S and S = N will give the same results.  \nMount the Megaswitch with the pcb (print conductor board) facing the centre of the instrument. In left hand guitars reversed if there is enough space. If not all types of Megaswitches can be installed and wired in a left hand mode.

Heat both ends with a soldering gun and then connect with solder. Using flux or solder with flux is recommended. It might take some practise to do this but it saves the effort of attaching jumper cables.  \nEyb Guitars · Günter Eyb · Schillerstr. 48 · 71229 Leonberg · Tel.: 07152-24385 Fax: 07152-24399 · Email: [eyb-guitars@t-online.de](eyb-guitars@t-online.de) · Internet : www.eyb-guitars.  \nGuitars   \nThe Eyb Megaswitch® 3.0  \nThe new Eyb Megaswitch® 3.0 was designed to extend wiring options and at the same time make handling easier. The general quality also improved considerably: all contacts are gold plated, including the ones of the contact rotor. This improves contact quality and durability. The gear is made of sheet steel and levers can no longer break which used to happen to previous versions. They also fit into narrower control plate slots. No custom knobs necessary anymore – all standard US knobs fit which are available in all sorts of colours.  \nThe number of versions was reduced to 5: E, M, P, S and T. Although there are more terminals per pcb (print conductor board) hardly any jumper cables are needed thanks to soldering bridges that can be used to make the connections. Each terminal has 2 holes of 1,5 mm Ø which makes wiring easier.
