When the HB is split, I expected its active coil to be hum-canceling when paired with the middle pickup, as on a typicalal SSS guitar, but it isn't. This seems strange to me, so is it normal? If so, anybody mod the wiring for a hum-canceling bridge/middle setting in single coil mode?
I don't play guitar on stage so it isn't a big deal, but in the event that changes I'd certainly like that enormously useful bridge/middle position in single coil mode to be hum-canceling.

I bought it used about ten years ago and assumed it was functioning as intended. Also, the coil closest to the middle pickup is the active one when split. Is this proper or should the coil closest to the bridge be active and would that make it hum canceling?
