Dylan Talks Tone Recieves Commision From Some Of These Links
I still have a tape head demagnetizer that I bought in the 80s. That thing is gnarly. I can feel it vibrate when I press its button.
LoL that’s because it’s actively degaussing a field somewhere. Check your wallet and phone at the door! I’ve got a larger tape head degausser for VHS and it’s the size of an iron. Respect the tool!
Is there anything I can buy like that now? Like to use on guitar or fender Rhodes ? My Rhodes demagnetized and I need it restore one quite a few pickups
My money says you may be able to hook your magnetizer up to a rheostat to vary the strength of your magnets. You won't be able to make them stronger but weaker should be an option for making specialized pickups.
I've got a very old watch demagnetizer that was in my father's jewelry store. It's designed to demagnetize but if you pull the object out of the field while the button is still energizing the coil it has the opposite effect.
We used to use this feature to magnetize and demagnetize screw drivers to hold screws for placement and find them on the floor. And then demagnetize them so the screwdriver wouldn't accidentally magnetize a balance wheel in a clock or watch.
Too cool! Well worth the money for someone making a living making pickups!
Excellent video. This is more interesting and more unique than the other guitar UA-camrs
That's pretty cool Dylan.
Dylan, you put in ALOT of work to make your Pick-upS
Thanks For Sharing 🎸 🎶
Very unique material. Thank you.
Thanks Dylan. That was pretty cool. You've motivated me to organize my shop. And the tech talk was great too.
This is an incredible video for anyone looking to make their own pickups to watch. Thanks!
Thanks Dylon have a great day.
Thanks for this explanation
Thanks for the video Dylan - should really help with business - time is money - Cheers from Canada
thanks for making this video... I've been wondering how that thing worked since you posted the picture of it when you got it.
Thank you ! 👍
Time to watch again!
Very cool new toy!
For those on a smaller budget, a really good source for high quality magnets is United Nuclear. They have lots of other very cool stuff too
Way cool engineer nerd level stuff! Thanks for making this vid!
WHOA! This is next level information. Thank you so much for the demo.
Question: what is the desired gauss level you’re looking for a typical strat pickup? Also, can you do this to a ceramic magnet too?
Hey man, found your videos recently and have been lost in the world of wiring. But I know nothing about wiring and I have a 95-96 washburn dimeslime that has gone to the shop 3 times and still won't work. So I'm just buying all my components and doing it myself. I was hoping you could make a video on wiring two humbuckers, a 3 way switch, two volume knobs, a master tone knob and the jack. I will still keep looking for a video specific to that. I still have more of yours to go through but I appreciate how well you explain.
Can you make a video explaining the sonic difference between different magnets. Alnico 2-3-4-5 vs ceramic. Some pickups have pole piece alnico 2 for strings 1-2 alnico 3 or 4 for middle strings and Alnico 5 for bass strings 5-6. Thank you! Really enjoy your videos!
the big cuestion is how to demagnet a pickup in a control way
Hi Dylan, thank you for the video. Could you tell us the link for the Magnetool Control, please? Thank you!
To undercharge a magnet, put wood or plastic spacers between the
neodymium and the alnico in the vice. The thicker the spacers, the less the charge. This works because it keeps the alnico farther away from the
neodymium, not because the spacers offer any sort of magnetic resistance.
Hi, Dylan! Can you explain the sidekick pickup construction, which makes Dean Zelinsky.
Thanks, very nice video, no bullshit talking ....... rock on!
great video. Where can we find the gauss value to obtain with each magnet? Vincent from France
Very informative. The one thing I am still wondering about is the importance of the gauss meter. Are there charts as to what readings should be for each magnet A2, A5 A8?
This was very interesting and informative. I have a question though. Do pickup magnets wear out? I use a screwdriver a lot for my job and I have a magnetizer for it that I slide the screw driver back and forth to magnetize, very similar to how you slid the magnets back and forth in the Mojotone. But the magnetism wears out on my screwdriver and I have to remagnitize it pretty often. So can a pickup become less magnetized over time?
I think that is the difference between a real magnet and tooling steel. Magnets have the ability to keep magnetized.
I noted your Tesla meter comes in various sensitivities. From like 2% to 10% I think. How accurate is yours?
I have a question! The device that you use to magnetize your magnets to your guitar can I also use this for my fender Rhodes?
Does it matter for a typical pickup slug which pole is towards the strings?
DYLAN, can the Magnetron Electromagnetic control unit set how much Gauss you want? like if you want 500 gauss or 1000 gauss how would you be able to do this so that all your A5 magnetics or A5 pole pieces will have the same gauss?
You got me curious now as to what effect an E-bow has on pickup magnetism.
A cheap passive magnetizer/demagnetizer from Harbor Freight will show anyone how to magnetize and demagnetize items such as a screwdriver.
I don't have the ability to replace or flip the magnets in a single-coil pickup without the risk of damaging the winding. Is it possible to change the polarity of Alnico 5 single-coil magnets using strong two Neodymium magnets? Thanks!
Great video Dylan, thanx for all that info.
The polepieces ina single coil are the magnets, right?
What would be the effect IF the pole pieces were opposite to each other?
For example: E = North up, A = South up, D = North up, G= South up, B = North up, E = South up?
Half of them would be out of phase, cancelling some frequencies.
So you just put the neodinium magnets in a vice?
Link for THIS Maagnetool?
I have a question: when using your electromagnetic machine, it only takes 1 second. Does it make a difference if you go longer? Will the magnet become stronger, possibly leading to inconsistent strengths across multiple magnets? Or does it just charge the magnet up to 100% capacity of strength?
I’m looking to magnetize some pickup magnets, and I’m wondering about charging them “too much” to lead to inconsistent strengths. Thanks for your time Dylan !!
Different magnet types have different ´capacities´ and many people charge them to full charge, but that might not be the best thing to do.
Sorry for the question, but, is it normal for buzz to increase when I touch the pickup pole? I feel like that's wrong, but not at the same time...
Make a humbucker made with 2 p90s
Does this SAVE a pickup that has been DEMAGNETIZING.. Repair wise
Yes.
I was thinking, if pickups are so simple devices, why are there so many “bad” pickups. I think this video kind of answers that
Couldn't you just use something like a PC power supply transformer to magnetize the magnets?
!!!! H E L P !!!! hi, I cleaned my pickups with a magnet... because it had ferrous dust all around.., result: 3 strings no longer play.. the magnets no longer have a charge. they are single coils from a fender signature artist David Gilmour.... I'm very desperate.., this video has given me hope again, but I have a question: does remagnetizing a pickup change its specs? there is no value of reference that characterizes a pick-up? doing a magnetic charging... does the original performance change? do the factory values change?!, thank you for your time
Contact a pickup repair guy, he will be able to ´recharge´ the magnets. You can charge a PU material to a certain level, almost like a battery, but maybe they don´t have to be fully charged.
Hopefully the repair guy will know. My believe is that vintage sounding PU´s don´t need full charge, but that is IP for the manufacturer.
$900!!?? When I grrew up, my grandfather had one in the basement. My stoopid uncle threw it away when Gramps died. I played with it only once.
It’s not unusual for people to throw away expensive gear they don’t understand that was in the house. In the real world, most people are not aware of gear
Dude I bet you my pickup was made with the old it was done with the old machines magnets not as accurate I'm not going to have perfect tone. I'm just messing around good content like always later
Do yourself a favor and take your wallet out of your pocket before you run that magnetron. Your credit cards, debit cards, license, etc will all appreciate it.
In this video you claim that 5,000 single coil pole magnets and 2,000 humbucker magnets last you a couple months... By that math you are selling and making about 45 pickups every single day. And you are potting all these pickups in a little crock pot that holds a few at a time?? Forgive me but I'm calling bullshit. With that level of sales, you would upgrade that crock pot inside of a week and you wouldn't have time to make videos. I'm sure you sell a lot of pickups but why make silly claims like this? It doesn't advance the point of your video. Just be you. You don't need to exaggerate.
this month was about that... and if you look at the schedule, you will notice..... we missed some videos AND.... ill sleep when I am dead
