About

Over the past two decades as a guitar player and enthusiast, I have discovered that high-quality components profoundly impact a guitar’s tone. This realization inspired me to dive deeper into the intricate world of guitar circuits and pickup design.

After countless hours of research and development, it was time to take my passion one step further by moving on to study pickup winding at the Roberto-Venn School of Luthiery in Phoenix, Arizona under the expert guidance of Rob Timmons of Arcane, Inc.

Sound Asylum Pickups was created to share my craft with other musicians who are looking for ways to enhance their sound.

Each pickup is constructed with the utmost care and attention through a hand-winding process using the finest quality parts. The result is a pickup that is open, responsive, and extremely dynamic. I offer a lifetime guarantee and 100% satisfaction to ensure you love your pickups as much as I love making them.
