    Guitar Freaks (like me)/Radiohead Fans

    Jonny Greenwood is always talking about "rewiring" his guitars. Does anyone out there know what that actually means?

    It's got something to do with altering the pickups (ie: opening them up and messing around with the wires inside). I think it gives the guitar a thicker, more intense sound.

    I don't think one opens the pickups, but rather replaces them ...

    Possibly - when you've got enough money as Jonny Greenwood you can afford to **** up an instrument
