There aren't many bands out there that treat their fans like Ozma does.

I just listened to that song again.  most of the guitars on that track were kept from the live demo recording, and I remember being particularly surprised that I pulled off that line at the time even though it's not perfect.  I hadn't had the mini-humbuckers on my epiphone batwing re-potted yet so you can hear really exaggerated tone explosions around 3:35 that I've never been able to get out of the guitar since - lesson, if you have an old guitar just leave it the way it is and just use it for recording certain things, the person I took it to double dipped the pickups which I think sort of deadened the tone, still a great guitar though.  a great DB song with cool parts for the band to get into.

Is there any way to un-pot a pickup?

He has towels around his window to keep out the cold air at night. "I hate this old house," he said bitterly, then changed the name of an unfinished track to "Cold Day."

I would imagine you'd just have to use a wax solvent or a heat source, but I think heat might be bad for pickups.

Yeah excessive heat will burn off the varnish in the wires and pretty much kill the pickup.
