Recently, I saw a TV program called "BIG" (if memory doesn't fail) and, what I saw is some group of mad scientifics building an impresive guitar, with the goal of doing it in the right way (with a luthier help, and with a pickup's maker involved also).
They built a monstruous guiar but, what really made me smile was the pickup that Seymour Duncan wound for such a guitar. It was huge but, proportionally correct and having the SD logo, even.
I enjoyed seen Seymour interested on that crazy project.
At the end, I think they made a jam with Peter Framton. Peter was playing a regular guitar and amp and, Seymour was picking the strings with a huge pick using both hands, while one more buddy was doing the notes or chords.
What a crazy and funny thing!.
Does anybody know what happened later with that moster guitar and, specially with that monster SD pickup?.
What magnets did he used?.
I think, wire gauge was thick enough and, since strings were also of a good gauge, the sound was extremely bass and resonant.
