  Location: SoCal | I just got a call from a buddy of mine who is in the studio editing a live recording he did.  He's run into an interesting situation.  His pickups on his Ovations (Elite 6 string and Custom Legend 12 string) picked up his voice.  I have no idea how this could happen.  Anybody have any thoughts? |

  Location: The Great Pacific Northwest | Pickups are just another variety of a Microphone.  If he was sing'n and play'n and either has a big voice, or the monitors were too hot...  the guitar will pickup will pick-it-up.  Really old electric's would do this, and sometimes a cheap single-coil you can get to do it also. |

  Location: Zion, Illinois | I was making a demo with my Elite plugged in into my Fostex 8 track. Just at the end of the take, my dumb dog Shadow started barking downstairs. Since I was plugged in, I didn't think it would pick it up, but it did.  
  
dang dog.
