Wrapped up this Trans Flag topped Tele bridge pickup last night. Features A5 poles, 43awg wind, and felt using white in the logo really set things off.

Look out for our trans homies, they need us now more than ever.

Added a new multiscale listing to the website today, for the ESP LTD M-1007MS and M-1008MS models. I made the 7 string version ages ago, and recently a customer who owned the 8 string version helped me adapt my design for the 8.

This set has our Trident II/Hellfire Hybrid wind. #elysianpickups

Been having 3d printer issues, most likely entirely self-inflicted, so decided to fix them once and for all. My toolchanger setup was using a sort of French clear setup to hold the toolheads when not in use, but this left a lot to be desired. I redesigned this to use bolts, vid in the next post.
Picture shows a Stealthchanger dock for my Voron 2.4 350mm, with a pair of bolts sticking out the front. I'm wearing an Alf T-shirt that says "TRUST ME BRO," and Alfs face is perfectly framed in the dock Picture shows a 3d printer hot end next to a dock that uses bolts for mounting.

Created a custom mount for a 5 string set of bass pickups I've been working on, hoping to do a demo for this later tonight.

What's more fun than black chrome open faced covers? Clear bobbins with black chrome open faced covers!

This is a wind I don't even offer anymore, the K2A. This wind is a whopping 27k DC resistance, but pairs that super high wind with an A2 bar magnet, bringing the output down to medium levels.

And here we go, finally. Been working on these all week, and finally finished today, thanks to some remakes. Really happy with how they came out though, and the customer is ecstatic, and that's what really matters.

The inverted version of this is going to be done today and it's looking very awesome.

This will be going live on my Meta accounts tomorrow. There will be fireworks.

This set features my Trident II/Hellfire Hybrid wind, ceramic bridge, and A5 neck. The tops are laser cut acrylic that's been hand fitted.

Set of electric guitar humbuckers featuring open faced chrome covers, acrylic tops that feature text over an American flag with a rainbow line in the middle ala thin blue line, but not fascist. The text is in black sparkle, reading "FUCK TRUMP" on one pickup and "ABOLISH MAGA" on the other.

Couple of things I finished up first thing this morning. The white pickup is an Ibanez RGDMS8 fitment TII/Hellfire Hybrid bridge, ceramic bar magnets, gold hex, and a black filled logo.

The 6 string pickup is a ceramic Trident II with nickel hex poles.

The next controversy 😆

Been wanting to do a meme pickup for a bit, this was the first one that came to mind, so made it happen. This pickup is a ceramic Javelin, little fire breather.

Other set is a Trident II/Hellfire Hybrid, ceramic bridge and A5 neck.
