  • how to remove steel wool "hair" from pickup

    I brought my Schecter tele into the shop a couple weeks ago to have the frets levels and fretboard cleaned while he's at it and such. There's a little bit of steel wool "hair" around the pole pieces on my neck pickup now. How should I go about removing it since they are attracted magnetically.

    Also, does this harm the pickup or sound at all?

    This black g-string underwear has the famous "O" logo that Opeth has been using for some time now. The logo is silk screened onto the g-string and looks very sharp in yellow against the black field. ..These are a one-size-fits-most.

      holy crap, how simple. Now I feel like a retard for not trying that. Duct tape should do the trick.

      Duct tape, the miracle tape, fixes everything.

              Does it sound more manly now?
              You should shave it with Gilette Sensor mach 3.

                    Did the Tech not cover your pickups with masking tape before he used the steel wool???? He should have !!!!
