I kind of want to replace my set of EMG 707s, but every other covered pickup is like $500 au a set. Open bobbin pups would look like ass on the guitar so for the sake of vain aesthetics I probably would keep em.
Though, those Fishman Stef Carpenters have a fucking rad Tron style. Can't find em anywhere though.

If you put enough reverb on folk music, does it become dream pop?

I want to get a set of white Ionizers for my RG7620.. they sound so good.

I don't like Active pickups either.
I want to look into the Lace X/death bars for the 8 string.

Gonna try out some D'Addario NYXLs, knowing me I'll snap it while tuning.

Playing around with my new amp and it's still sounds pretty okay. I'm usually playing in my room at a relatively low volume so pups shouldn't be my priotity. lol

Sounds right to me.
Though if it's leaning in the bluegrass/jig/hoe down realm I'd suggest slowing down the playback and pitching it up before the verb. Conversely, the ol' hippie singer/songwriter on a stool with a guitar subset might do with a simple bit of speeding up before the verb.
You are talking about lots of reverb.

Is it modulated reverb?

Sort of...this album isn't dream pop but Tyrannosaurus Rex's 'Unicorn' is a great example of a 'folk' album with lots of reverb. I guess it kind of becomes proto-prog (obviously T. Rex did not become that).

Although that said 'grunge' + 'reverb' does 100% equal dream pop. Citing DEERHUNTER as my primary example and well as WEED's - Deserve.

Does anyone use those Boss half racks? I really want to make a 3u rack full of them with the power supply and get an ES5 or something to control it. It seems like that would be a rad synth rig for droney stuff.

Every gosh darned band practice I end up wanting a delay. How have I been so long without?
After Santa pedge I'm buying.

I used to be a real delay junkie but I've been without one other than the ct5 for over a year. Now I just want one that is fairly simple and sounds great and I keep it
