Understanding Electric Guitar Pickups - A Beginner's Guide

In this video I talk about electric guitar pickups...

While I was in the process of designing a new custom guitar with Kiesel, I took the time to do an in-depth pickup comparison between the guitars I own and am used to and compare them with the pickups in a Kiesel Aries I was borrowing from an old student of mine.

I'll be releasing the comparison video very soon, but today I wanted to share the first part of the video where I give a beginner level explanation of guitar pickups.

I talk about the different types of pickups, the different ways they can be wired (how the pickup selector switch works), coil splits, push/pull pots, and a bunch more.
