Thunderhorse71 Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 I have some original Tim Shaw Dirty Fingers pickups in a 1985 Explorer where I was copper taping the cavities and trying to put this back into playing condition. I know these were considered hot pickups for the time but did they wax pot them? Has anyone since? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie chitlin Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 What's the diff? If you use super high gain and they squeal, then it's a problem. Otherwise, un-potted pickups are the best! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merciful-evans Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 My luthier demonstrated an easy method of determining this. Tap the pup with your finger. If it sounds hollow, its unpotted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
