1st Pic - h-s-h

2nd Pic - h-h

3rd Pic - s-s-s




s= single coil = sounds bright with bell-like shimmering tones

h=humbucker (2 X single coil) = sounds thick and warm,

those are magnetic poles. some pickup have them covered, some are simply designed without them (eg EMG). it's more of a difference in design. function wise- it's generally the same.

wah...I didn't know the EMGs don't have magnetic poles

I thought only the rails are the only pickups without poles
