My Trent Guitars Model 1 arrived with the pickups out of phase with each other (honest mistake as we were going back and forth on the pickup choices). To fix pickups that are out of phase with each other, one simple way is to swap the ground and hot lead wire placements. So in this video the ground (green) was going to the ground of the 3 way toggle switch. And the hot (black) was going to the first terminal on the toggle switch. By switching that -- green to first terminal and black to ground -- it fixed the problem and brought all the sweet p90 bassy tone to the middle position. Makes me love the guitar even more -- it's got such a wide range of tones. Thanks for watching!
