Re: Rare Jackson Demon You Might Want to Check Out
Hey Michael, your tribute pic of Dime is too huge!
Taking more space than people's posts!
Yea agreed. I don't know why he is posting this in non Charvel/Jackson forum. Spam?

my question is this...
in every pic i've seen of his Dean's whats with the neck pickup? the bobbin closest to the neck always looks white?? or is it reflection?

It's what's called a zebra pickup. One bobbin is black, the other is creme/off-white. [img]/images/graemlins/poke.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

but the "white stops right before hitting the last pole piece on top and bottom of the other bobbin though, it doesn;t look like a zebra to me.
it must be a reflection i guess, the pickup ring looks different in michaelm's sig. pic of dime...
and dudes, i'm not That dumb! I think its a '59 anywho...

Dime did use '59s in the neck. And I believe there's electrical tape on the ends of his pickups for some reason, that's why it looks like the bobbins don't go to the end.

These tapes are to avoid the strings to hit the side of coils when you bend or hit the high or low E strings hard.
I have seen that before on Warren's guitar and some others as well.
Re: Rare Jackson Demon You Might Want to Check Out
Ahhhh, you;re right joe! that perfectly explains it. i forgot about that. that used to happen to me. only a few times though. i know Vai has an Aleister Crowley saying on his tape. konx or something.
