Electric guitar pickup maker out of Norton, OH, featuring the patented Tuned Aperture pickup. Veteran owned, anti-war, anti-fascist. Pickups made in the USA from global components. Will not do business with MAGA.
Just wrapped up a J/P bass set for my buddy Nick at Prophecy Instruments, can't wait for him to unveil the bass these are going in.

Have another charity offering, this time benefiting the National Immigration Law Center. This set can have any wind you like, and your choice of chrome or black chrome open faced covers. The custom shop fee will be donated in full to the NILC.

Wrapped up some sets for a guitar builder today. Two sets featuring chopped carbon fiber tops, and one with black fiberboard. The sets are mini hums, multiscale, and feature out Trident 2/Hellfire hybrid wind in the bridge and a complimentary wind in the neck.

Here's a set I finished up today, Hellfire bridge and Javelin A5 neck. Pale Moon Ebony tops.

The last few weeks have been pretty heavy, but the people of Minneapolis give me some hope. RIP Renee Good, Alex Pretti, Keith Porter, and everyone murdered in ICE custody. They deserved better.

This is absolutely spot on. The right, largely white and Christian men, have been giving their gender ideology on us for decades. They so lust after control they have to remove women's autonomy and destroy trans people to feel some semblance of control.

It's time to end their movement.

For obvious reasons, the kidnapping of Maduro has gotten most of the attention lately, but I think it’s also important to point out that at latest count 80 Venezuelans were also killed during the operation.

You can't call yourself a good person when your job necessarily entails threatening & inflicting violence on vulnerable people, all to maintain a fundamentally unjust social order.

Kaylan of sixstringtv reached out and apologized, seems there's some people out there who don't like me and it's for all the wrong reasons.

Michael scamming more people isn't surprising, but I was pretty surprised to be called "a known jackass" by someone I have literally never interacted with.

Just wrapped up another Progress Flag set. With this order, I have also donated $100 to the Trevor Project (2x the custom shop fee). Defend trans existence. Trans rights are human rights. We need to do more to support our trans friends, especially now. #transrights #transrightsarehumanrights

Please check this out, this is one of the most important things I've ever made, a true game changer. Innovation is still alive in the electric guitar space, it's just not coming from the big names. This combines two things I've come up with, and there's still room for another of my inventions.
The 2nd prototype is WAY closer to the traditional P90, this time I used 43AWG plus another trick to get it almost identical to the traditional P90. Check it out.

The tone isn't identical, yet, but the vibe is 100% there, that's a P90, without noise!
If Bluesky would let me post audio only....

I don't like to use Google but here we go. First half is a traditional dual A2 magnet P90, the 2nd half is my new design

Been working on the new noiseless P90 design, one important thing for me was fitting it all in a standard P90 sized package. Can report that I have accomplished that. This set has a full 42AWG 10k wind coil in each position, and has the new magnet config and a 44AWG coil underneath.
