    The neck pickup sounds very strat like if you listen to the Boston Blues album on "If you Let me Love you", or "Before The Beginning" on Shrine 69! Glorious tone even before hitting that middle position! It's like that SRV Tube Screamer tone everyone hankers after, without the need of a Tube Screamer, just a f**king loud Fender Dual Showman ;o)

    Never heard the story of the Selmer tech being responsible for the neck pickup. Very interesting. Great research

    Those pics of Peter playing the guitar in the '80s are very charming. I wasn't aware he'd ever really picked it up again after selling it. But yeah with all his changes he obviously no longer fancied that guitar. But it's nice that he had a little moment of reconnection with a guitar he must have played on hundreds and hundreds of shows.
    Killer Jumping At Shadows, Ramón. I think it's one of the most powerful examples of Peter's absolutely unparalleled touch for blues improv.

    It definitely has quite a unique sound and many are trying to recreate that sound.
    It seems it's mostly to do with the thicker strat wire that the pickup was wound with although of course it being out of phase helps get that tone.

    I hate to be that guy but I have a small correction ....Peter's neck pickup was rewound in the incorrect type of wire, not the incorrect gauge it was 42 awg (American Wire Gauge) Heavy Formvar (strat) wire instead of Plain Enamel wire. Formvar has a heavier coat of insulation reducing eddy currents and also had to be lower wind because the thicker insulation means you can't fit as much wire in the bobbins. That pup has a bit more clarity than a standard PAF

    lol most humbuckers these days use plastic shielded wire so not totally wrong for a humbucker and as for the winder more suited for Fender pickups, a winder is a winder! You said he wound it in the wrong gauge wire, so what wire did he use and what wire was it originally wound with? Also if he underwound it, what DC resistance did it start and end up with? Now this is the big question, if he put the magnet north polarity rather than south, did he wind the pickup clockwise or anti clockwise because that will also make a huge difference? My guess he wound the pickup clockwise and that's why he made it north polarity, making a mistake putting the magnet in wrong is extremely unlikely for a pickup tech.

  • @mattthrun-nowicki8641
    @mattthrun-nowicki8641 Год назад +1

    I heard that the wire was both the wrong gauge, and wrong material- formvar, not plain enamel. Which also would make sense with the more Fender orientation.

    Doesent look like it says Gibson. What kind of git are you playing? P. S. Bought a J&D Les Paul Deluxe for $199.00 usd a couple of weeks ago and it is absolutely incredible. It just goes to show, there are many variables in getting a great guitar. Another plus is it is beautiful. No truss rod cover, nice gold hardware and smoking humbuckers. Just bought a $700.00 used PRS before that that I don't like playing at all except it is nice looking. It helps so much to try them out.

    • @thecaveofthedead
      @thecaveofthedead Год назад +1

      That doesn't explain the changed leader wire. And it's now known that the pickup winds don't use the usual wire used for PAFs. So it's clearly been disassembled and rewound. So it therefore seems much more likely that Hamer were mistaken and that the magnet was accidentally flipped during the rewind.

    • @Dad-Gad

      Completely not true , the neck pickup died and Peter had it rewound by Sam Li who rewound it in reverse by accident .

      Yep can vouch for that, magnet flips always drop too much volume when the middles on and level on the pots….. there are 2 era’s of the greeny guitar….. Peters era and Gary’s era. The insides were set different….. ;-) I just got Alan’s set of PG spirits and my suspicions from a while ago are correct. Flip that which ever way you want ha!
