Elysian Pickups
@elysianpickups
Electric guitar pickup maker out of Norton, OH, featuring the patented Tuned Aperture pickup. Veteran owned, anti-war, anti-fascist. Pickups made in the USA from global components. Will not do business with MAGA.
This combination gives an extreme amount of clarity, perfect for when the gain starts stacking. Check out this super quick demo I put together this morning. Used Fortin Nameless X and NTS for the guitar tone, my Yamaha BB235 bass, and EZ Drummer 3 for the drums. #elysianpickups #tunedaperture
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. #elysianpickups #tunedaperture #fucktrump #abolishmaga #transrightsarehumanrights
Little peek, I'm having to redo some stuff on the Abolish MAGA one.
Want to see how my fully custom bobbins are made? This is a time lapse video I made this morning, making a 7 string T style set. Printer is a Voron 2.4 350, parts printed in ASA, support interface material is PETG. Music is one of my songs, recorded during COVID. #elysianpickups #tunedaperture
Finished up a cool purple and red set for a friend this morning. Set features our Valkyrie wind, purple A5 bridge and red A2 neck, with black hex poles. #elysianpickups #tunedaperture #fucktrump #fuckice #transrightsarehumanrights
By the way, added an In Stock section to my website, check it out. There's some stuff I'll be posting about tomorrow on there: elysianpickups.com/product-cate... There are currently 8 listings, and more coming throughout the week, I've got several things yet to list #elysianpickups #tunedaperture
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. #elysianpickups #tunedaperture #transrights
Just wrapped up this meme set, thankful someone gave me some inspiration for the neck pickup. This 6 string set has my Javelin wind with a ceramic bridge and A5 neck. $325 for the set if anyone is interested. #elysianpickups #tunedaperture #fucktrump #fuckice #transrightsarehumanrights
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. #elysianpickups #tunedaperture #fucktrump
Got a pretty classy Schecter Reaper 7MS bridge pickup fresh off the bench this morning. This has our Trident II wind, gold hex poles, and a ceramic bar magnet. Walter is such a Texas dog. During the recent heat wave here in Ohio he was still outside lounging on the deck. He loves warm weather.
Happy hump day, only two more sleeps till the weekend! Got a raw nickel set for your eyes today, this one featuring our Valkyrie wind, nickel flathead poles, and A5 bridge & A2 neck magnets. Walter is on IR right now with a bum hind paw, poor boy might be getting arthritis 🥺 #dogs #elysianpickups
The last 24 hours have been absurd. Trying my best to ban all the bigots on my Facebook Page, but it's a monumental effort. The one thing I've learned from this is Instagram is way less MAGA than Facebook.
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. #elysianpickups #tunedaperture #fucktrump #abolishmaga #transrights
A bunch of stuff finished up the last few days. The standout here is the white set. Set features a Sentinel 7 string bridge, A5 rails, Valkyrie neck with A5 bar magnet and nickel hex poles, and matte white tops. #elysianpickups #tunedaperture #fucktrump #abolishmaga #transrightsarehumanrights
Got pics of the P bass set I made last week installed in said bass, and should have demos pretty soon too! "These are the best P pickups I’ve ever played dude" per the customer, can't complain about that review!
Been real busy all weekend and today, knocking out orders and getting the queue back on track. The polka dot set was a lot more difficult than I expected to make, the dots all had to be hand fitted. #elysianpickups #tunedaperture #fucktrump #fuckice #transrightsarehumanrights
Have a new multiscale model we can offer now. Had a customer order a set for his Schecter Reaper 7MS, only to receive the set and find out he has an Elite variant, which has more traditional pickups. He sent the pickups in so I could reverse engineer them, and I built him a new set. #elysianpickups
Crazy. That's just one post. I had to spend so much time this morning cleaning up the vitriol, it was pretty bad.
Made a bunch of fascists mad today 🤣 Over 100k views on this one post alone, what the fuck. Anyways, this is a 7 string noiseless HSP90 set, featuring custom etched tops, nickel hex poles, ceramic bridge, and A5 neck. #elysianpickups #tunedaperture #fucknetenyahu #freepalestine #fucktrump
Bass, how low can you go? Working on some standard bass options to add to the website this week, feast your eyes on this MM 5 string pickup. This pickup is wound to 22k w/ 43AWG, should sound pretty awesome. Can't wait to test it with my rig tomorrow. #elysianpickups #tunedaperture #transrights
Wrapped up another custom shop order yesterday, this one a 7 string soapbar set featuring our Trident II wind, ceramic bridge, A5 neck, black hex poles under the tops, and pink Abolish ICE/Destroy Fascism tops with blue text #fucktrump #fuckice #ElysianPickups #transrights #transrightsarehumanrights
Here we go folx, the Progress Flag set I teased yesterday is complete This was originally going to be a Progress Flag in both positions, but customer got inspired by my Abolish ICE set While I was working on this A5/A2 Valkyrie set I realized the text could be cut from a Progress Flag, and did it.
I haven't posted in a while, but I've stayed pretty busy. This is a sneak peak, this set isn't done just yet, but it's pretty close. Customer wanted one pickup to say Fight Fascism, and I wanted to do something special for that, so I cut the letters out of a Progress flag. #fucktrump #transrights
This is the loudest set I've made in a while. Features our Trident 2/Hellfire hybrid wind, ceramic bar magnet bridge, A5 bar magnet neck, transparent neon pink tops and black hex poles. #elysianpickups #tunedaperture #humucker #tone #guitar #guitarist #fucktrump #fuckice #transrightsarehumanrights
