JON DICKINSON PICKUP COMING SOON!
We have been working on a project with Nigel Price and Jon Dickinson. Those of you who already know Jon, will know that he is an incredibly talented guy when it comes to electronics, and thus you will be aware of his superb amps and pre amps. So, when we needed a unique pickup, specific in design to Nigel’s requirements, which other pickup builders struggled to build, Jon was the man to discuss things with. Nigel was after a full sized, split humbucker, with adjustable poles, slim enough to float on an archtop. Sounds simple enough, but the project was far from a simple one. Otherwise it would have been done already. Anyway, Jon has been busy and has come up with something very interesting. A little bit of tweaking still to do on the prototypes, but we are almost there. More information coming soon!
#jondickinsonpickups NYLON STRUNG, SHORT SCALE CHIQUITA
This one is a first for us. We have been building a custom, nylon strung Chiquita, almost complete now, for one of our customers. This custome Chiquita has a hand carved spruce top, hand carved flame maple back and sides, and is oil finished. It has a 620mm short scale neck, with 18 frets joined at the 12th, and is fitted with a LR Baggs Lyric pickup system. As per the requirements, we also fitted a flame maple arm rest, and flame maple finger rest, both stained in chocolate nitro. We are thrilled with the results, it looks great and sounds even better. Look for some posted audio snippets in due course. #nylonstrungfibonaccichiquita FIBONACCI FIBONACCI COMING SOON!
