But what about you, Zonno? We really like to know!
I understand you asking me this question frequently.
Well, I'll tell you all about it:  I'm nervous, I'm insecure, my self-esteem is fading away. 
 
I'm sorry to hear that Zonno, why? We really like to know!
After all these years I do not feel very comfortable anymore in this super-ish thread-forum-thingy.
 
What is the problem, Zonno? We really like to know! 
Things are changing constantly over here.
Post # 1 used te be: "I have an alembic" or something like that.
 
So what do you want, Zonno? We really like to know!
I'm still waiting to discuss Alembics.
42,539 posts have passed since and the epic alembic discussion is still a dream within a dream.....  

Alembics often have a dummy (pickup) in the middle to cancel noise.

I doubt if many will be able to see this, but I'll post anyway:-

Alembics often have a dummy (pickup) in the middle to cancel noise.

Since I am about to get some whacky crap done on one of my six strings this post intrigues me...
 
I have three slots (if I got a new pickguard). I have two pickups I want to use (neck and bridge but was considering middle and bridge just because I'm weird). I have issues with noise. I have stock pickups I do not want to use (one of which could act as the unconnected "dummy" PUP).
 
Is this implying that if I stuck one of the old stock pickups, unconnected, in the middle slot between the bridge and neck pickups it would reduce hum/noise?
 
We're talking humbuckers here (not active but powerful shredder metal shiz).
 
Cheers.
 
/off topic'd but on topic'd but who the fruck knows the topic shabadoowhah...

are you guys going for the longest lasting thread ever ???
 
if so, i just make it on post longer ...
 
BTW, what's a pickguard? is it the thing you store your guns while driving a pickup?
