This might a little too obscure, but something that confuses me about the guitar is the pickups. I understand how they work, however there are certain types of pickups, called humbuckers, where instead of having 1 coil of wire in the guitar to emit a magnetic field, there is another one.. The point of this is to cancel out a buzz that you get with a single coil pickup when plugged into an amp. My question is why would this do so, and where does this buzz come from in the first place?
