in Rob Reiner's marvelous rockumentary spoof "This is Spinal Tap" (Spinal Tap is England's loudest rock band), lead guitarist Nigel Tufnel (Christopher Guest) shows Rob the band's top-of-the-line electronic gear, and after explaining that the best amplifiers have settings that top out at ten, exclaims "This goes to eleven!" http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/scott_pearson/new_page_1.htm

thing-a-ma-tsuwms are my favorite thingsMe too, Double-dub!  See? [music note icon] When the word bites, When the theme stings, When I'm feeling bad, I simply remember my tsuwm-ish things, And then I don't feel so sa-a-ad.

the number of pickups is irrelevant to volumeAye, I know. That was meant to be an extra aside to illustrate the Tap's mega-rockosity, rather than a follow-on to the previous comment. Didn't come over like it, I know. (I could be pedantic and mention the extra oomph you can get from humbuckers over single coils, but I won't  .)

Ok, can someone tell me why it's 17 (or so) posts later and we are still on the same *puzzle... when CapK gave (albeit imbedded) the answer with his first post and jo couldn't be more direct (except with an explanitory link, I guess).
All of a sudden I feel "Coo-coo for Coa-Coa Puffs".

gosh, mu, I can see why you're puzzlepated and bewilderbeast by all of this. let's see if I can help you out the door. CK did give a colonel clue and jo gave a wonderful recapitulation of the question, but then we had some minorly obfuscatory digressions until Yoda came along with actually the answer, which I, ab intra, glossed. as to why we're on the same *puzzle, that's 'cuz I haven't deigned to post another. and maybe i won't. :û

mu, since you seem to feel that I have somehow slighted jo, I can only at this point in time  quote her own words to you: It's a fair cop. "Candididates are advised to read the question first." But I do have the answer.
