He brought a concept as old as life itself to western mathematics, so no small feat . I believe it is the only series where you can calculate all other numbers in the series just by having any two numbers in the series .

So how did you use it in mechanics?

It was used to come up with a rough estimate of reactor power answering a given bell. I'm not going to lie, they all called it Fibonacci Sequence but I didn't know what that was so I just memorized the numbers.

I never attained that particular qualification. That's what I get for trying to break out, I guess.

No reason we cant do some more experiments at 12k with lower powered magnets.
I agree on the ceramic though, the pet bear analogy is just about perfect

C8 = "Custom 8" ie Seymour Duncan SH5 Custom with an alnico 8 magnet.

But yeah ceramic magnets are not for me either.

So that said I will likely be in touch some time in Jan when I can afford to get more pickups. I'm not really jiving with the bridge pickup in my fender showmaster (pearly gates plus). Sounds weak and pathetic.


RE: Deacci Fibonacci Pickups - FORMULA73 - 12-14-2014

He meant the A8. The C8, or Custom 8, is what the Duncan Custom pickup is called with an A8. It was all the rage on their forum for a while.

I do. They're in a 77 Ibanez 2630 but I put some A2 in there to better suit my amp. They're still plenty bright and more middy! Whatever happened to the vid of my noodling over you guys winding?

formula noodling

Just for the record, the pickup name was formulas idea

No it wasn't. You guys just hate Americans.

(He told me as much, guys. Better watch our backs.)

ahhhhh, didnt know, i assumed it was a specific ceramic magnet.

It IS a good time for a beer.


RE: Deacci Fibonacci Pickups - Declan Larkin - 12-14-2014

Enjoy. Good catching up with you, that set of pickups was one of the many that got me thinking there has to be a better way to do this.....

Catch you later
