Post by: Steveguy on April 10, 2008, 10:36:10 am
Does anybody know how to play what ryen is playing around 3:05 - 3:10 of the song?  It's a little to quick for my ear.   :'(

I just listened to that song again.  most of the guitars on that track were kept from the live demo recording, and I remember being particularly surprised that I pulled off that line at the time even though it's not perfect.  I hadn't had the mini-humbuckers on my epiphone batwing re-potted yet so you can hear really exaggerated tone explosions around 3:35 that I've never been able to get out of the guitar since - lesson, if you have an old guitar just leave it the way it is and just use it for recording certain things, the person I took it to double dipped the pickups which I think sort of deadened the tone, still a great guitar though.  a great DB song with cool parts for the band to get into.

Is there any way to un-pot a pickup?

I would imagine you'd just have to use a wax solvent or a heat source, but I think heat might be bad for pickups.

Yeah excessive heat will burn off the varnish in the wires and pretty much kill the pickup.
