Why do some people remove their pickup covers?
Why do some people prefer to remove their pickup cover(usually on the bridge pickup)? Does it affect the tone or sound at all?
Most, if not all pickup covers are made from "non-ferrous" (non-magnetic) metal, which means they will NOT adversely affect your magnetic pickup's sound.
Unless you REALLY wanna take em off, leave em on.
They are there to protect.
In the '70's guys were taking em off and it became a fad.
The pickup companies copied the look, but I really don't know any good reasons to take them off?

Chrome Rims: Add Some Attitude To Your Vehicle
Did you ever wonder why some vehicles have the natural ability to stand out from the rest of the pack? Did you ever wonder how these cars differ from the rest? Did you ever wonder why vehicles on car shows are very attractive even if you have stared on it for several hours? And with all the wondering and awe, did you ever realize that there is one car part, or we can say car accessory that completes the overall package of any vehicle.
In a car show or car show competition for instance, you can notice that almost every vehicle particularly those that are designed for exterior category have one thing in common: they all look totally beautiful. There are vehicles that are coated with special paints to project a more stunning look. There are even some that are painted with exotic images. There are those that are dressed with body kits. There are those that are installed with lift kits or lowering kits. But among all these extra fabrications and extra accessories, one accessory is almost indispensable: the chrome rims.
First, you have to know that chrome rims and aluminum wheels are two different things. Aluminum wheel are usually made from finished metal with dull silver finish. There are also aluminum wheels with shiny black finish. But this is very rare. Aluminum wheels eliminate the need for wheel covers and hubcaps since they can stand alone on the vehicle without the incompleteness of the looks. They are more expensive than the wheel covers and hubcaps but cheaper than chrome rims.
Chrome rims on the other hand come with shiny wheels finish and are used by most car owner because it provide a different effect to the vehicle. Chrome rims make vehicle sharper, more expensive, and look faster.
Chrome rims are set of wheels that have become very popular to those who want to add spark to their vehicle. Since old factory wheels tend to look boring and lifeless, the addition of chrome rims makes the vehicle look livelier. And if getting noticed is all you wanted, chrome rims will definitely do the job.
Chrome wheels could be acquired in two ways. You can request your car dealer to trade the existing factory wheels with new set of chrome wheels since most new cars are released with aluminum wheels. And, you can also buy chrome wheels as an added option from aftermarket manufacturer.
The good thing about chrome rims is, you can get chrome rims for every type of vehicle. You can now replace your existing wheels whether you own a car, truck, pickup, SUV, or a van.
Some OEM manufacturers have set of chrome wheels designed for a particular vehicle make of a vehicle model. There are also those that are made generic for general fit. Sizes also vary. Chrome rims could be 15" and 16" or 17" and 18" for larger vehicles such as SUVs and pickups.
With exchange for more beauty comes the price. Normally, chrome rims are worth higher than ordinary wheels or wheel covers. One chrome rim could cost several hundreds of dollars; even thousands. Multiply that with the number of your tires could cost you almost as much as another brand new vehicle. But in spite of the price, the attitude and style each chrome rim produce is worth all the money.
Can i Buy and customize a guitar online?
i want to get a guitar online and be able to select a paint job for it and hardware...specifically EMG chrome pickups...any sites i can do that on?
There is full custom and semi-custom.
I would consider Carvin a semi-custom (www.carvin.com). Pick out all the details, and you get your price right there.
Jackson Guitars (www.jacksonguitars.com) got their big break building for Randy Rhodes. They still have a custom shop. You can't order on line, but you can build parts list and then order.
Plus one for the Peavey custom shop.
After that, you start getting into very limited production luthiers, and a whole lot of money!!
