OK, was it me, or did Robin and Richard have their pickup selectors removed, while Ron had his in the usual spot.  What gives?

Robin has his selector in one of the knobs, Richard was in the usual place as far as I could see.

The kind of silver/metallic black one yeah.  How does he get the acoustic sound?

I'm assuming some sort of magic pickup..

Acoustic sound can be done by piezo pickups.

For example Slash has one in his signature Les Paul. It's not _that_ expensive, but not worth installing into a low priced guitar. You can google it up.

Nice.. Do acoustic simulators require a piezo bridge too, or do they construct the sound from a normal pickup?
