I may be wrong about this, but I think that the beeswax potting is more of a nostalgia thing than it is actually superior in any way. Anyone who knows, feel free to jump in.

Funny, I just posted on my guitar blog about this. It's a video by Mojo music and the guy uses a cool trick with a razorblade to seperate the solder from the cover.I think the next time I take a cover off of a pickup, I'm going to use a soldering iron and a solder sucker. I'm not too sure the Dremel idea is a good one, but that's the way it was done in the online article I learned my method from.
I'd love to hear feedback from others that have done this. I'm sure I could use a few pointers to perfect my technique.

I finally got a chance to look at the video. The razor blade trick is a good one, I'll be trying that soon. I also realize that my soldering iron is not good enough (30w) for what I'm doing. I guess I also might invest in a bit of beeswax.Originally Posted by guitarify
