Мнение Wade, Motorcity pickups:
Todd: What are some of the biggest misconceptions you feel a lot of players have when it comes to pick up building? Or are there any myths you feel need to be corrected?
Wade: It would have to be DC RESISTANCE. I just feel there is no significant validity in judging a pickup this way. DC resistance has little to do with tone or frequency and more to do with the length of wire really. “What’s the big deal?”, I often hear, ” its 16k so its a pretty hot pickup?” right?
“Well NO”. I’m sure it can be if it was designed for gain but again it’s that perfect marriage between the pickup and amp that determines how hot your signal is. The pickup is the mouthpiece to your amplifier so feeding it the frequencies you want to hear gets you closer to the tones in your head, fine tuning at the amp. Some say its “ease of play” with higher resistance but we know better : ) Two pickups at 16k from 2 different builders are going to sound different. Each persons touch is different.
