Should you AVOID Hum-Cancelling Pickups?

Are Noiseless / Hum-canceling pickups BAD? In this video I test what my Hum-canceling P90 from Fralin can do.
The question came up in my last video where jeg played a Novo Serus J with regular P90's and compared it with my own home build Novo inspired guitar with a Hum-Canceling P90. In this video I dig deeper into Noiseless or Not - by playing the guitar.
I also introduce the Inspiration Factor Grade system - that I just invented ;)))

I’m heavily inspired by Novo guitars by Dennis Fano - and my building philosophy is - not to reinvent the wheel- but rather try to learn from the greats.

I’m a guitar building beginner and I have been following The Great Guitar Build Off competition 2020. I learned a lot from the competitors and that inspired me greatly to build a guitar myself.

I built my first guitar under lockdown last summer 2020 and guitar building kind of hooked me.

You can watch first guitar build right here:
   • How I built my dream guitar from 200 ...  

I have bought a neck from GuitarAnatomy.com and the body is built of old pine wood floor boards from a house built in 1808.
Why is that a good thing? Because old wood is cool ... and also more resonant.

The point is to learn how to build great guitars. It can't be rocket science, but it's fascinating. My plan is to learn from the best by researching materials, components, and methods.
