What’s in a pickup?

“Probably the most obvious difference in pickup designs is the single pickup versus humbucking pickup. A humbucking pickup contains two single coils placed side by side, with a common magnet arrangement. The sound is typically “fatter” (more midrange) due partly to the larger number of coil windings and partly because the sound of the string is “read” over a longer portion of the string.”
