Quick question folks,
When someone refers to "soloing the PUPs", do they mean playing with the right hand over a particular PUP, or electronically switching one off and playing in your normal right hand position? Thanks.
Mike

wake up with a beautiful stranger | | Join Date: Jan 2001 Location: Australia ~ Sydney, NSW | | | yep, you got it right the second time - "soloing a pick-up" means to play with only one of them cranked and the other(s) completely off. a lot of bassists like to solo their back or bridge-placed pups, particularly for slapping.

a lot that i know (my teacher does it a lot on his Kubicki, i do it with my Spector, a whole slew of other guys i know like to treb up their sound for it) do, but is it really something to argue over? there are starving children out there. share some of your oysters with them. man.
