    NGD: Vintage Explorer awaits....

    Don't feel bad about taking out the Shaws and replacing them with some iconic pickups (with great stories).

    Destinking a guitar

    I'll give you that, they are iconic looking. But I think they tasted better when I was younger. They have juicier, sweeter apples now.

    Me too! They are terrible. Grainy and not that sweet. Macintosh are my favs, followed by Honeycrisp.

    I have a Distortion Neck that I don't really love - what are my options?

    Parallel is quieter, with a higher resonant frequency, and a cleaner, clearer sound. It is free to try- just wire black and red together for the "hot" output, and green and white together for ground. You might like it, and depending on what you use the neck pickup for, you might like the balance...

    Just one apple core? Does it matter what kind of apple?

    You can also wire it in parallel to see how you like it.

    As far as a case goes...I don't know...I've never had luck other than to just get another case or gig bag.

    Tech' ing gear or not

    Wow, that is actually really cool. My close vision isn't bad, but it might be one day, and I could always use another well-functioning headlamp.

    Expensive Pickups that should song great but don't

    I don't worry about terms like 'medium' or 'high' as everyone has different definitions and those terms are hardly scientific. Show me the numbers.

    Interesting article, I don't remember reading that before.

    Tech' ing gear or not

    I wish everyone had someone around them they could ask about this type of thing, and believed themself capable enough to try. We try to do that here, but there is no substitute for someone in person teaching you.

    I agree that the Seths/Deluxe combo is glorious. No pedals needed.

    Observations on tone.

    I think he got no responses because it is really hard to follow (all his posts are).
