Hi. Appreciate any help on my pickup question. I have two Fender Humbucking pickups, presumably a neck and a bridge. There is no identifying numbers except for the Fender logo on the back. Both pickups look identical. On each pickup the adjustable coil has red and black wires. On the fixed coil the wires are green and white. Can someone tell me the polarity of each coil?? Did Fender use a color convention for the wiring? Thanks.

In answer to your first question, premising these are newer Fender humbuckers, the red/black wires coil is south; the green/white wires coil is north.

As to your second question, I have no idea as I always knew a "color convention" to be references to superior camera film, hot air balloons and/or cold water laundry detergent.
