- In this episode, I explain the different types of magnets you can use in a guitar pickup. I'll focus on Alnico 2, Alnico 5, Alnico 8, and ceramic magnets. I will also explain how you can gauss and degauss a magnet with a simple magnetizing jig and a homemade gauss meter.

A magnet is a magnet until Stew Mac sells them. Then they become "guitar magnets" and the price goes up 1000% Sorry to those of you who bought their guitar hammer or guitar screwdriver, but you know it's true!
I appreciate tge information in this video, but I have to point out, it's pronounced 'g*ow*ss'
Don't leave magnets near kids. They eat them.
gause is pronounced gowsse not gauze
I think we should work together to conceive of the absolute best flat Earth model that accounts for the most observations, and then point out why it still doesn't work.
Pretty sure it’s pronounced like LOUSE. Gauss is pronounced like GOWss
The earth is like a magnet because it is not a sphere.
The more I learn, the deeper I go, the more thin my wallet becomes.
In the mid part it feels like taking physics lectures from professor.. 🙏
The name "Gauss" ends with an S and is pronounced as in "house" There are no Zs in Gauss.
A million more years and I won't hear a better explanation of the pickup generating a guitar signal. Thank you!
First guy that has talked that in depthly about magnets. Awesome!
You know, I'm not new to pickups, yet this was the most informative pickup video I've come across! Not a second wasted! All info, all facts, step-by-logical-step, and the Gaussing part was just a damn thrill, it really was! THANK you!!
Excellent lecture! I’ve watched dozens of videos from others and essentially I learned nothing. Glad I found you.
Great videos, very informative but as a physicist there were a couple things that bugged me
I watched this a few years ago and decided to watch it again as a refresher. Great stuff!!
Extremely inspiring, thank you!!! I'm building pickups myself and I just bought a Gaussmeter. Now, following your approach I do not need to have faith on my purchased magnetized magents having all a consistent/equivalent magnet stregth (which they do not, and it can mess up your self built single coils). I can now homogenize my magnet rod strength or EQ my pickups.
Wow! My mind is blown. I’m a retired EE and thought I understood the magnetic workings of PU and coil. You are a master Jedi of the PU. I even heard you say “ feel the force”. This is the best explanation I’ve ever heard. And being new to guitar See described as an inverse relationship between knowledge of the science and the ability to play the guitar. (Naming something a hummbucker because it bucks the hum is my go to example). Please keep making these videos. I feel like I just entered a masters degree course in Maxwell’s equations.
Thanks Chris, these last 2 videos on pickups have been awesome! I am trying to learn about pickups currently, and these have really helped. You make complicated stuff easy to understand. Thanks again!
Very timely. Thanks, and perfectly answers my question from last week. Of course you already answered it. Thanks again.
