"They" already make the vast majority of pickups on machines, because the function of scatterwoundness is that there's air in between the wire (soon to be wax) and that somehow, an imperfect field disrupts the electric function of the thing is a way that is supposedly pleasing to the ear. Bill Lawrence, Lace, EMG Hz, there are tons of pickups out there that work "perfectly" which provides a louder, wider-spectrum output. But the argument of course runs that it's the imperfections in output that give it "soul"... like a handwound computer that turns people blue and snaps in and out of FORTRAN. Or like why unison guitar melodies sound good because they're not quite exactly unison. Jason Lollar has done a lot of writing about "air" and wax and pleasantly microphonic PU's, but I can't find it right yet.
Do I just get the creeps too easy, or is this really creepy?

I had a buddy who bought a '60 something fender mustang for $900. Swore it was the " best guitar he ever played". I thought it was a piece of junk, but held my tongue.
About a month later he sold it for $915. I guess his best ever guitar couldn't compete with a $15 profit!
And check these guy's out - http://www.marigoaudio.com/ . My fave is the 7 foot speaker cable @ $2700.00 a pair.

Van den Huul - €5750 for a pair of 3m speaker cables. My personal favourite is the €190 1m HDMI cable... It transmits ones and zeroes!
High-end stereo/home cinema is completely bonkers.

Well to be fair. If someone buys it it does transmit a one, a nine and a zero :icon_jokercolor:
