It has spray foam under the cover instead of wax. If you dunk it in a glass of water, it would float.

 

Seriously?  ???

 

Edit: Nice Try Dixie. I looked this up at Sweetwater:

Floating Pickup

A magnetic pickup mounted to the end of the fingerboard or the pickguard on a guitar (or to a non-vibrating part of other musical instruments). Floating pickups are sometimes used on archtop acoustic guitars so that adding a pickup won't interfere or change the vibration pattern of the top. Frequently the pickup jack, volume, and tone controls are mounted right on the pickguard, making the guitar's electronics entirely removable.

It is not attached to the soundboard.  It attaches to the pickguard and "floats" over the soundboard.  It maintains (in theory) more of the acoustic qualities of the guitar. It also can be removed to go back to pure acoustic.
