    some  mount  at an angle  for different  reasons . one  is to  try and match  up  the pole / string  spacing better , and  they  believe  it  looks  better  with  6  poles on  3 strings   that way  .

     and the  placement actually effects   tone too  . top   slanted  forward will add more  bass to  the  fat string  . and   more ting to  the  bottom  , and vice versa. 

    body space   can be an  issue too.

      Which way is forward and which backward, Pick?

      forward = towards the neck .  backward = towards the bridge  . 

      even without   slanting   the  pickup  ..  placement  closer to  bridge  will  give a brighter .tinny    tone  ..   closer to the neck =  more  warm and full /  nice bass .
