I know different people play in different places, but where the metal pickup covers are locaed is RIGHT where I play when I solo the pickups.

When you play the neck pickup, I've found the place to play to get the most unique sound out of it is right over the neck. Same wtih playning over the bridge when the bridge pickup is soloed, and right between with both pickups on full. This is how you get the greatest tone differences between the pickups, and if you havn't tried it, you should, you might be suprised what tones are uncovered.

That being said, I know a lot of people use them for style, and admittedly they look pretty damn cool, but hell, it really rules out some fantastic tones you can get!

Yeah... while the covers do look really cool, they aren't very [img]practical. I tried playing one of my teles with the ashtray on for a while and that didn't work either. The only time I have them on is if I'm taking a picture to toss on here. They do look really cool though. 8)
