well, this looks interesting!

makes new varieties of musical texture possible by delivering a chestpounding transient attack at all distinct dynamic levels. Spatial complexity, yet with clear features-frequency, intensity, location, rates of change, harmonic relatedness-gives auditory cortex more to respond to. In parallel, neural activity concerned with generating (un)pleasant sensations increases, thus bringing Q-tuner technology into association with the mechanics of emotion; this phenomenon is caused by opiate-like substances called endorphins which are released as a side-effect to forcing the brain’s mathematical analysis circuitry-applied to ferred out and reassemble hierarchies of harmonic relations- to it’s limits.



may need to outfit an old fendar bass with some of these!

These have been out for a while. I'm still waiting to hear what the humbuckers sound like through a good high gain amp.

yeah, I'll be customizing my Cort matt "guitar" murphy guitar sooonish.

I shall be removing the tacky quilted sunburst, put on a creme base coat and let an artist have his way at it. Technically the bridge mighty mite hummy will be taken out.
I'll replace it with a sustaniac pickup, which will leave space for a single coil sized pup.
Now I was considering the SD lil' 59 wich I very much like on my nashville tele's middle position.
However, it seems we have a very interesting alternative for the Duncan.
