This Gorgeous Bass made by Randy at RAAPT Instruments was built for Brett Carruthers of The Birthday Massacre & A Primitive Evolution.  Equipped with Custom MJS EB-Style Pickups with correct 52.5mm Neck and 55.8mm Bridge Spacing.  They are made in the traditional Gibson Style with side mounted coils but larger polepieces and a lower output than the old Mudbuckers.

Here is Stefan’s MJS Electroduochord Pickup Assembly. This is a Dual Stacked Single coil assembly with separate outputs for a 2 string instrument. Made for a Special 1-Of-A-Kind Instrument! Some In-Progress IG Videos for your Viewing Pleasure: Instagram Post #1 Instagram Post #2

Mert’s 1939 Epiphone Electar Lap Steel has been lovingly converted and is now hum-cancelling!  We made a Custom MJS Stacked “Kick” Single Coil with Neodymium magnets and Custom Richlite Cover.  Before and After pics and an in progress vid for your viewing pleasure! Instagram Link Mert Says: Hey Smitty, I got the guitar yesterday and I had the chance to play around with it. It is exactly what I was looking for. Not only does…

These Custom MJS Gold Foil pickups were made for Rick at Kelly Guitars and are ready for the Vintage Airline Tuxedo Barney Kessel Restoration Project. Special thanks to Jason Sheehan for the Custom Aluminum Mounting Rings – These were made to properly set the pickup heights.  Another fun collab project!

This Custom Cello Pickup was made for Gustavo & will be installing it on his Yamaha SVC-50 4-String Cello – it attaches as an extension of his fingerboard.

Don’t let the Humbucker Sizing fool you – Lyric’s Ernie Ball Sterling Albert Lee is ALL TELE – ALL THE TIME!  We wound the pickups to Tele specs and Retrofitted custom bobbins to mount into the existing cavity. We’ve got that old Tele twangy without doing any routing (250K Pots were added).
