when I wax pot my pickups, I always add some ear wax that I save up in a mason jar. to get that good golden tone. Sometimes they smell a little funny. That pickup you made sounds great. Keep up the content you are really the only thing out there to relieve the boredom of meatey oktrety.
Hahahaha thank you so much for this awesome comment WPAF. I have actually given some though to picking out a certain brand of scented wax cubes or essential oil to add to my wax pot. Then all my pickups will have a signature smell like buttery waffle or birthday cake... Seems like a fun extra. Thanks again for watching bro. I was answering comments from months back and kinda remembered what im doing on here and decided to do some videos like this one: in the original spirit and style of the channel... Although I still got some extra fancy nifty stuff going on the back burner. ;)
My god, i consumed all your content, its just a pice of mastery, from the fermented perfectly putrid humor as me that just slaps you in the least unexpected moment, to the precision and incredible art work you are doing and inventing, you love fucking around and finding out, as i do myself. Love from Spain
Great job pick up sounded really really good now I'm just going to have to find me an old sewing machine to rip apart I really enjoy your videos keep up the good work 🤘🤘🎸🎸
Thank you so much 5s. I am so happy to hear that. I was recently answering comments from the past months and really remembered what it was I was doing here on this channel. I switched gears and tried to make a video more like the ones that actually grew the channel. Its more fun too! HAhaha! :)
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment Eddie. I'm gonna try to make more vids like this one with the original style of the channel. Its a lot of FUN!
Thank you so much for watching Adam. I am too! Its so much quicker and easier to do things and record them now. Oh, How about that tone at the end! Thats the same amp and mic but I'm in the big open pineboard live room finally, That sound room was built right after I moved here has been packed with the saw and all the other big tools for the workshop for years. :) Im feeling really good about things right now!
@@heavymetalATC I’m happy for you man! It sounds great. I’m trying to move myself, it’s rewarding to have things where they belong. A man needs a work space. Let’s keep in touch, I’m starting a podcast and I think you’ll like what we’re doing.
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to write such a kind comment Eddie. Awesome! I actually had quite a bit of fun making and editing this video. Hahaha, Its so much easier to do this whole thing with a proper place to do it in with lights and enough room to move things. Started sneaking the use of a modern camera lens in finally as well. I was really surprised by the sound of this recording same mic same amp but Im actually in a big pine board room designed to record now. ;) IM really feeling good about things at the moment!
Damn that shit was funny and cool as hell! I am going to make a pickup winder as well I have two vintage sewing machines that I don't want to Fuck Up but it's tempting!
Loving your stuff. Your videos pretty darn educational. Its nice to see someone actually going through the guts, nuts and bolts of the thing instead of "WOW Look at this new/old guitar!" Have you ever experimented with different pots? (I.E: Cermet, Molded Carbon, different Watt ratings)
Hahaha, Thanks for watching EK. I had a good bit of fun making and editing this. Soooo much easier with a better place to set up and record. I also think I figured out that videos in this original style of the channel need to be the direction I go in, I still got some fancy stuff bubblin in the darkness. Hey, I was stoked at the tone on this recording. Im finally able to get into the big pine live room to record a loud amp, It had a saw and tools and all that stuff packed in it since 2018? I'm feeling very much better about things for the channel at this time. ;)
@@touchthesun2448 😃 Heck yeah, wind you up some, if they dont play, rip the wire off and go again. You'll get it and they'll sing special because each person has a different touch on the wire.
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to leave such kind words Patrick. I am glad you like the humour in the video. I plan on making more videos in this style as I had planned a bunch of fancy serious crap... im still doing that stuff but I now remember what I need to be doing here, thanks to going back, reading and responding to the comments of kind people such as your self. Thank you for the support bro. 100%
Hahaha! Thanks DH. Thats a ceramic magnet from a chinese squire. The raw output definitely rules over a tone and vol circuit and I think 3 things also helping it get that tone... 1) All that rediculous scatter in the winding and it wasn't potted for too long 2) Loud amp pointed up in a big pine board live room 3) Its hard to tell on the black guitar but its kinda in a strange position between the normal neck and middle and tilted to bridge the gap. I learned about this sweet spot from an old japanese teisco style guitar. I guess this is why an sg a les paul and a flying v all sound different with the same exact parts... the pickups are in slightly different places (nodes) on the strings. ;)
Have you gotten a chance to try to multi-split/tap idea I gave you? I thought up a modification of that idea and thought of using a Neodymium bar magnet but to wind it like a lipstick pickup, no bobbin just wind the magnet itself, while adding the taps into the windings.
Thank you so much for watching and commenting Tony! This was a fun video to make and edit. I was answering old comments recently and kinda remembered what I was actually trying to do here. Big Epic high end builds are ok? but this is the style of content that built this channel!
I still love the sound of a tube amp. Warm, some slight noise and imperfections but sounds awesome. Only thing I dislike about them is the cost and tubes (valve for you British blokes out there) can be hard to find, especially since so many are from Putin land.@@heavymetalATC
Well, the conflict/war is winding down so 2025, maybe. Even an old 12AX7 is 30 bucks on a good day and expect 50 while a JJ is about 150ish.@@heavymetalATC

bro is ahead of his time with this editing, this is hilarious. loved the vid bro, learnt alot

For some reason, TH-cam took 11 days to notify me of the bean footage... Good to see you bro!
I love the phrase "delicate violence."
Bravo my friend, live that clear crispy sound, good job.
Thank you for being my new Inspiration Shark Eye. For real. Dorshak.
Hahaha 🤣 I was flabbergasted when I saw that footage like dang, I just ain't that mean... Why am I making a face like my wife does at all times. 😂
I avoided this vid for a while cuz I have already solved my pickup winding dilemma but damn this is a good one entertaining as hell! I love this guy!
Awesome video, I learned a lot and laughed my ass off doing it!
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to leave kind words Fuzz. I am so glad you found it to be entertaining!
Great job pick up sounded really really good now I'm just going to have to find me an old sewing machine to rip apart I really enjoy your videos keep up the good work 🤘🤘🎸🎸
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment Goff. Give it a go bro!!!
This might be my new favourite channel unironically

It's up-ehr
That sound be MEATY! For a chinesium amp & a crap coil🤘🏼
I'm staying tuned so please roll that beautiful B footage.
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment Eddie. I'm gonna try to make more vids like this one with the original style of the channel. Its a lot of FUN!
You funny as hell bro lol, definitely be back to watch some more.
Thank you for taking the time to write a kind comment Jeff. I'm glad you dig the vibes... It's definitely not "normal" TH-cam's. 🤣
Glad you finished your shed. Another great video.

Yeah, yeah, but we all know that the secret to tone is decide which string to tune sharp. Looks like a ton of fun!

@@heavymetalATC I agree you're really on to something with this style of video.
Hell yeah... I love it
Thank you so much Bob. I really appreciate all the support and interest you have shown to the channel.
@@heavymetalATC I think I am going to get an old sewing machine for my gold foil pick-ups.
@@touchthesun2448 😃 Heck yeah, wind you up some, if they dont play, rip the wire off and go again. You'll get it and they'll sing special because each person has a different touch on the wire.

Sweet
Boy, that middle position with the raw ouput is fuggin KILLING it for tone! What magnets did you put on this?
Hahaha! Thanks DH. Thats a ceramic magnet from a chinese squire. The raw output definitely rules over a tone and vol circuit and I think 3 things also helping it get that tone... 1) All that rediculous scatter in the winding and it wasn't potted for too long 2) Loud amp pointed up in a big pine board live room 3) Its hard to tell on the black guitar but its kinda in a strange position between the normal neck and middle and tilted to bridge the gap.

Sounds good for a 25¢+ pickup.
😂
Sounds good regardless.
Yeeeeee boiiiii!
Thank you so much for watching and commenting Tony! This was a fun video to make and edit. I was answering old comments recently and kinda remembered what I was actually trying to do here. Big Epic high end builds are ok? but this is the style of content that built this channel!
hahaha you are funny.
Sweet Southern Fried Rock or it never happened.
There you are general! Thanks for watching and oh yeah, I even stuck a little extra tube juice right on the end after the credits. :)
I still love the sound of a tube amp. Warm, some slight noise and imperfections but sounds awesome. Only thing I dislike about them is the cost and tubes (valve for you British blokes out there) can be hard to find, especially since so many are from Putin land.@@heavymetalATC
@@generalawareness101 dang! I had not yet even considered the implication of trying to get a set of JJs right now???
Well, the conflict/war is winding down so 2025, maybe. Even an old 12AX7 is 30 bucks on a good day and expect 50 while a JJ is about 150ish.@@heavymetalATC
@@generalawareness101 WOW!!!
All other music TH-camrs are just a bunch of squares.
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to write a kind comment Baron. Hahaha Wallets are also square The fatter they get the less folks seem to be able to think outside the box LOL ;)
