starts about a third of the way in...

here's the thing.. I love Teds harmonic playing but there's no frickin' way I'm slapping a humbucker in the middle position o' nuthin'!!!

But next time Goji says there's no reason to slap a middle pickup in ... this thread'll be waiting.

I don't use the middle pick-up on a Strat, but to put one in a Tele? And a humbucker?!
Dear oh dear.

Goji is conspicuously quiet... do you suppose that the shock at the idea of a middle pick-up being of use has killed him

I can imagine a middle humbucker (and nothing else) being quite a good sound.

What about a middle P90? ooh P-Rail!

They should do a lipstick/soapbar combo next.
