In the hope that we can retrieve these rare stolen instruments, pickups, and tools. Basically everything that was on display in Frankfurt was stolen (even our banners, suits & suitcases!). Here is a rundown...

Compared to the Spectra Sonic the Model 10 is stripped down to the bare essentials. It’s constructed with Obeche wood (pronounced Oh-Bee-Chee) discovered by Jones. The body and neck are both made of Obeche–it’s very transparent, which translates...

There are a few performance videos and a video on how to pop out the wooden shims on a 6120 type guitar and replace them with rubber pieces. This allows height adjustment of the pickups. Brand new.

Simply put, it’s a TV Classic that uses blades instead of polepieces. The blades provide a larger magnetized surface area, providing greater inductance. The resulting tone retains the Classic’s clarity, but with a bold and full broadband punch. The Super’Tron bridge...
