Well, the new clip sounds like you're playing an electric guitar unplugged, it's kind of dull and not exciting. The distortion still sounds like you're playing with no bass, no mids, and treble turned up to 11. So all in all, it sounds much like a mosquito buzzing in my ear. Even the stock pickups in a squier strat sound much better than that.
well yah thats the point... thats on supper clean... no bass no nothing and sounds like that when I do that... I like it..
the point is you would have to hear it in person on my amp..
the Mic dosent catch the nice bass punch... and mids and such...
and you got to understand im rec it on a DVD player/burner... I have a crazy setup
also when you play single nots/pluking rill fast they dont blend... you could always
hear that your playing...

Re: I made a clear sounding pickup...
so let me get this straight, it's clean as supper, and the single nots are a pluking rill that goes real fast but isn't blending? So aka, you're saying a bunch of garble that makes so sense?

i think this thread is a good example of how guitarists are always trying to 'reinvent the wheel' so to speak and end up making something crappy that nobody wants...

Re: I made a clear sounding pickup...
what if I were to just make a auideo signol as mp3 then you could just conet it to your sound from your computer.. not your computer speaker.. that little plug in the back... then conect it to the guitar port on your amp.. then put the amp on clean and bam
you might be able to hear what I hear.

Re: I made a clear sounding pickup...
no because the way a amp works... the little amp in you computer speaker would not increase it well... its a very raw sound... just because you hear a CD well on you speakers dosent mean every sound will sound like that... amps for guitars are for very low to hight signol output...

One of my favorite bands. Really raw guitar tone that still sounds great.
Maybe a lower cost of production type sound? Good ol' JerryC is pretty good at guitar.

Oh, also, you need to go hit up a store and get something like this PC mic at least...
Then put that in front of your amp. Plug it into the microphone input on your computer and use a little program called "Audacity" that you can download for free online.
