I am confused about a few items I have seen on guitars recently. The first is on the Dime guitar shown in the attachment. There is what appears to be electrical tape on the edges of the neck pickup. I have seen this on other guitars Randy Rhodes and others are playing. What is that exactly and what does it do? In most cases it half covers the outside pole.
The other thing I see on guitars is on the headstock, just past the nut. It looks like a big square of metal that perhaps dampens the strings? I have seen some metal players with this installed. What are they and what do they do?
