Re: why are some so neurotic about pickups?

I agree.. talk is cheap. You can see, by my signature, that I have a few Duncans, and I have posted demos with most of them.

Hey man, people argue about capacitor color.. it takes all kinds

Re: why are some so neurotic about pickups?

Yeah sometimes I think that too! And I go like: 'Just buy the damn pickup'!
But on the other hand it never hurts to do some good research because there is lot's of good advice on this board but also a bit less good advice.
Getting a lot of different opinions on something can help you shape the true definition of something or at least you form one of your own better.
I personally think it's fun to talk about this stuff, but I have a pretty big imagination.
And that's why this forum rocks!

research i am definitely for! I usually ask ONE question here then go on the search engine of the internet and find out the rest. i am amazed at how quickly you can learn many things about any pup in a short time between here and the search engines

all you do is enter the key word and BAM!!!! the whole freakin history of whatever you wanted to know about I know about ducna si never used or tried

I read through as many pages and threads as i could since i am just learning about pups, and it seems some are downright NUTS!
I mean i know what i want in a tone, and i know it is only logical to ask some questions about getting that tone,but doesnt it make sense to just BUY A PUP to hear it after asking as many questions as a guy like papersoul,or who ever?
I mean how much can you say about the duncan custom
