I think I could use some lessons in how to "talk tech." You see I've become increasingly interested with the technical aspects of the instrument and amp, electric and mechanical.

One thin I'd really like to do is figure out how to coil tap a humbucker, to get the single coil type sound.

I've done some searching on the forums (Yes I did my research....) and I just can't understand a word you guys say (Which is making me kind of sad, I'm a straight "A" student a.k.a. dork) . I mean I could talk music theory for hours, or technique issues, but none of the actual mechanical and electric issues.

So could use guys give me kind of a definition list of key terms and words you use hear on this forum, cuz as of now, you might as well be speaking German (which some of you do).

Thanx a lot!
