[edit] Overhaul

This article needed an overhaul very badly and I gave it one. It was very Maynard/Tool-centric and didn't focus as much on Adam as it needed to. Adam has accomplished a lot more than I have documented here, but in the previous version, much less was listed, and many unnecessary facts about Maynard and Tool were present.

[edit] Overhaul pt2

This article once again needs an overhaul very badly.. It is almost entirely copied of toolshed.down.net.. Furthermore, that bio from toolshed actually isn't written that well..--Johnnyw 03:10, July 10, 2005 (UTC)

Well there isn't much documented about him, it won't necessarily be able to be super long. I think it is sufficient at least.--Cassius987 19:47, 10 July 2005 (UTC)

I do not mean to add more information, just rewrite the article in a more structured fashion. And as i said, it's mostly a copy off toolshed's FAQ, which is of course not NPOV.. --Johnnyw 21:22, July 10, 2005 (UTC)

Hey I noticed that you said you need a citation to verify the part about adam only using the treble pickup in concert, and leaving the rhythm off so he can quickly kill the sound. I found Adam saying that himself in an online interview here http://www.musictoyz.com/articles/choptool.php later.

[edit] Puscifer reference

can we change the bit about puscifer being a "fake band" to "then-fake band" or something like that as maynard has actually created a project called puscifer? Deutschebag17 23:37, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

Done. –Pomte 00:08, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

i adjusted it a little bit to make it clear that he's not involved in puscifer. was this a wise move?Deutschebag17 05:17, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, totally subtle move. –Pomte 06:15, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
