How to Make a Pickup Part 2

[ChaosBurnsWithin]

This guy seems like such a cocky person. I don't know why I just don't like his attitude. But mad respect to the man, he knows his shit, has done his homework, and knows exactly what the hell he's talking about. Always.

[MiseryFields]

Is it just me or does it seem like this guy uses the most complex terms and vocabulary he possibly can? lol

[bigdaddy496]

the guy interviewing looks like hes getting bored

[AlexSlams]

Isn't White/White copywritten by DiMarzio?

[TarheelAl10]

@AlexSlams

White/white doesn't belong to Dimarzio, cream/cream does, Seymour Duncan can't technically sell you a cream/cream pickup unless its covered (which the Seth Lovers and Antiquities are, thus you sometimes see them).

[mistad00m]

that is not seymour duncan

[GuitarzMyThing]

@mistad00m ...Duh....But he's his like second hand man. Working for the company Seymour Duncan...

[MotorSickler]

The Duncan dude is an alien!Check out his pinky finger at 8:37! The only cooler thing would be being born with 6 fingers.

@MotorSickler Crap. My secret has been exposed. Quick. Back to the flying saucer. Let's get outta here! ;-)

[wpaschal88]

I wanna put 2 Dimebuckers in my strat with 1 single coil, and still retain my 5 way switch. is there any info that can direct me to the wiring diagram? I want to be able to snip the wire leading from the pick up to the switch, and splice it in. If this is possible, great, if not then I need some light shed on the subject. And yes it is my version of Frankenstrat, 2005 Squire, Cort SP-3 skunk stripe neck, no pick guard, and the red, white, and black stripes.

[DECIFERTHIS09]

@wpaschal88 You should be able to pop out the old singles and route a new whole to make it fit and then solder them to the wire 2 reds to 1 red type of thing use your same guitar wiring just solder to them if it is a humbucker with a single wiring harness then it will go in quite well red to red black to black etc.

[DeadOriginal]

@wpaschal88 , PremierGuitar have a website which gives wiring diagrams and advice (easy to follow). I got the wiring for my SSS individual on/off from there.. BTW, the wiring I just mentioned is (in my opinion) the best config for any strat by a long stretch, it gives 7 settings for the SSS, ie,, bridge + neck (almost a Tele) or all three "on". Much better than the 5 way toggle ;-)

[DECIFERTHIS09]

my bad my computer sound is broken but what did he say about the different colors of the copper wire and do you run 2 seperate copper wires on a single pickup or do you run + and - through the wire ends. thanks so much.

[DeadOriginal]

@DECIFERTHIS09 , I think the colours are just a code for the AWG. not sure what you mean about the winding, I think it's just a single wire start - finish.

[panzarw]

So does any one know how much winds there has to be?

[MrAnon78]

Useless camera guy. Why didnt he/she stay on the woman winding the pickups?

Moron.

[winster626]

@MrAnon78 haha rofl !!!!!

[lespaulrock1998]

he point to the 43 gauge wire say its used on pafs while they ussualy use 42 gauge

[coolio496]

[andr123w]

@coolio496 the bobbin is the flatwork. that the magnet pole pieces go through. watch the 1st part for mor info

[coolio496]

ok thanks

[hiimkyle70]

the interviewer is standing there and nodding his head do you guys wonder if in his head he is thinking wtf is he talking about

[Victrucci7]

How many turns of wire have a single coil pickup ? Sorry for my english.

[seasonedtoker]

depends on the pickup model

[nutsalldatime]

@Victrucci7 couple of thousand turns..... check wikipedia

[OKaeporaGaeboraO]

lol " you would find different color combinations" "ZEBRAS" "yeah zebras maybe" I lold becuase it sounded like he yelled out zebras to try to be smart.

[guysapire]

[herda5]

This is the real "Expert Village"

[trousien]

59' are sexy beasts i love 59' in the neck position wound extra hot

[rmxrider20032000]

All my guitars have Seymour Duncan pups and all my future guitars will have them too.

[eggman6]

@lidesnowi

the same way they make every other pickup

[widepass]

I meant like EXACTLY in detail up close.

[eggman6]

And it will be exactly the same

It will perhaps use a different gauge of wire, or a different number of turns, or even both.

But there would be nothing different about the construction process.

[widepass]

How about the snake oil?

[ArrestedForSpeeding]

I wanna see how they make the Duncan Designed Invader Sh-8 Pickups.

[racefaceec90]

the rain man of pickups.respect!!!

[racefaceec90]

holy shit that guy knows about pickups!!!

[rnfr]

i want that machine for my living room.

[poorperson]

what an expert on plastics!

[docremel]

perfect n detailed

[AezSmokeyGanja]

This is awesome and theres little but cool history lessons about pickups from a few guitar makers.

Premier Guitar should try and hook up with Discovery Channel or Public Broadcasting ect..

To have these videos aired to a large Audience

YouTube just doesnt do justice to these type of videos. Too many crap videos on this site

that flood out these kinds of videos.

[Carlijawan]

Bahaha

The lady said "precisely" in spanish

[two4motion]

Just awesome.
