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?
