    “You are a Genius. These things make a solid state amp sound like it has Tubes in it. They have this 3-D thing going on. I’ve tried every important pickup upgrade since 1983 & the pickups are the best by far. I want these in all of my guitars.”
    -Mark Whitfield, Legendary Guitarist

    "I was knocked out by your pickups! Plugged straight in, it sounds like it was going through a top shelf tube compressor—only better.
    I’m the luthier/owner of Stonetree Custom Guitars for over 20 years now. My goal is to craft a “brand new old guitar”. I have relied on a couple of the biggest boutique pickup makers for the most part, but your pickups are a game changer. I have built guitars for many pros including Eric ‘Roscoe’ Ambel & Joe Bonamassa."
    -Scott Platts, Luthier

    "These are the best pickups I've ever used. I'm so happy to have these in my guitars. They are better than vintage pickups. I was shocked to discover they are even better than the Arlo's. They just feel & sound amazing. Man you are a Genius. "
    - Will Crosby, Legendary Guitarist (BB King, Aretha Franklin, Mavis Stables)

    “It sounds like the have Tubes in them...almost three dimensional. They just sound really sweet. I don’t how they do it but they even feel sweet. Just like vintage pickups but with more sustain and less noise. They are just amazing”
    -Mike Gallaher, Legendary Guitarist - Joe Cocker, Leon Russell
