Re: hysteresis of the B-H curves guitar pickups

The string is completely out of the electric signal chain....it´s grounded at best to reduce hum, even that is not essential to the function.
The string is ONLY your piece of magnetic material oscillation in the field... esssntially the "voice"
A pickup= is a current ampifier
False
A pickup is essentially a device designed specifically for "measuring" fluctuations in it´s magnetic field and converting them into an electric signal by way of inductance... The pickup GENERATES current, not amplifies.
To amplify, you need gain stages.... with the exception of active pickups or onboard preamps I see no transistors or ICs in my guitars that could be part of one. But either these or tubes are necessary to amplify a signal.
Also, an amplifier is not (usually) capable of producing a signal, and an amplifier needs REAL JUICE, at least a few milliwatts.
A pickup is essentially a "microphone for magnetic fluctuations instead of air pressure fluctuations"
A pickup= is a Filter and notches out frequencys
False
A pickup can be designed to accentuate certain frequencies more (or less), but it´s theoretically and practically impossible to build a pickup that actually fiklters anything out without the use of additional capacitors and resistors.
But Lo and behold: that´s the electronics.
But if you know anything near as much as you fail to make us believe you know, you also knew this.
Good night.
