But if the sustainer is turned off, I can still use the neck pickup, right?
I have another question too, regarding plastic pickup covers. This was taken from the Sustainiac website:
Couldn't I compensate for this by simply raising the pickup? Since the plastic doesn't interfere with the energy of the sustainer, this doesn't make very much sense. Adding a cover doesn't make the pickup any farther away from the strings (and if for some weird reason it does), couldn't I just raise the pickup?
