Boutique pickup maker, featuring the patented Tuned Aperture Pickups. Making your tone better out of Norton, OH.

4/20 has already passed but we can still get stone

4/20 has already passed but we can still get stoned, right?

This custom multiscale pickup rocks some stone tops!

This custom material is thin enough to be used as pickup toppers, but can also be laser cut, making it perfect for my purposes. I have another variant of this material in stock as well, so stone tops are an option in the custom shop going forward!

This pickup features a custom angle and spacing, using fully 3d printed bobbins to achieve this result. This pickup also has our Trident 2 wind, black hex poles, and ceramic bar magnets.

Would you rock stone tops? If you could use any stone, what would you top a pickup with?

11 days into Pride Month and I finally decide to post again 🤣

This set is one of the coolest I think I've ever done. Customer ordered this Progress Flag set in January, custom shop order of course, and after I put out the Abolish ICE promo shots customer asked if the bridge pickup could say "FIGHT FASCISM," and of course it can.

So while I was working on the Progress Flag top, I realized it would look absolutely sick if the text was a Progress Flag. I think it came out pretty amazing, though it may be better to just use the rainbow part of the Progress Flag going forward, it got a little busy in places.

Anyways, I've got pride, and this set means another donation to The Trevor Project is in order.

On another note, I am no longer working a day job as of yesterday. Leadership where I worked was completely inept, and I finally had enough and walked out. It's all pretty sudden, but I'll need to expand my pickups as much as I possibly can, so any sort of signal boost will be MUCH appreciated, if you see my posts consider commenting, sharing, tagging people, ETC. Every little bit helps so I can keep a roof over my had and gas in my car.

I'll also be putting some instruments up on Reverb soon, I've got tons of guitars and basses I can move, including some Elysian branded guitars, so keep your eyes peeled. I'll likely share what I'm selling here as well.

Last year was my best year on record, with your help I believe I can smash last year too.

Thanks for everything, you all are the best.

Wrapped up an HSS set this weekend.

This set features our Valkyrie wind, with the middle and neck single acting as a hopped up version of the Valkyrie neck humbucker, the neck position is wound with 42AWG, while the middle is wound with 44AWG. This gives the set he same exact switching combinations as the humbucker version, but with true single coil tones in the two isolated positions.

The bridge pickup features a ceramic bar magnet and nickel hex poles, while the neck and middle pickups have the staggered TAP magnet configuration, giving better balance across the strings. Those are topped off with custom drilled gloss black covers.

This 8 string set features our Valkyrie wind, A5 bridge magnet, A2 neck magnet, mono tops made from Mun ebony, and nickel hex poles. Nothing but class.

Finished up a custom shop set this morning that's a little different from the norm.

This is a Trident 2 set, ceramic bridge, A5 neck, with grey acrylic tops. Customer didn't want visible pole pieces, so this set has solid tops. There are black hex poles under the tops so the pickup has the proper tonal response, pole piece type definitely matters. I've found slugs actually don't work great for higher output pickups and lower tunings, they tend to mud things up a little bit.

Got some fun stuff coming off the bench this week.

First set is a @kieselguitars optimized 8 string Valkyrie set, A5 bridge magnet, A2 neck, gold hex poles, and cream acrylic tops. Class all the way down.

2nd and 3rd sets are our new noiseless HSP90s, 6 and 7 string. Both sets feature A5 and A2 bar magnets, black hex poles, fiberboard tops, 4 conductor wiring, and direct mounting.

We may not be in a golden era societally, but we're definitely in a golden era at Elysian Pickups!

This gold wrapped set features an A5 Javelin bridge pickup and dual A2 noiseless HSP90 neck pickup, with gold hex poles to really top things off.

Would you rock gold covers? What's your favorite cover style?

Just finished an incredibly loud set, going into one of @shane.caskey 's @xolocustomguitars

This set features our Trident 2/Hellfire hybrid wind, ceramic bar magnet in the bridge, A5 in the neck, and transparent pink tops that damn near glow. Cameras won't even pick up this color in my experience, so I have to edit the photos afterwards to get them close to reality.

Can't wait to see these installed, they guitar they're going in is as insane as these pickups.

Am I seeing double?

No just the latest noiseless P90 set ready to ship out. This set features the lower, 42AWG wind, and dual A2 bar magnets in both positions. These are really set off by the cream covers, and the nickel flathead screws are classic.

These will ship out to California tomorrow.

What's your favorite form factor for P90? I'm a big fan of dog ears personally.

Just finished up another Pride set. Read to the end for an update on the queue.

This set features our Javelin wind, A5 bar magnets, and black hex poles under the carefully crafted acrylic Progress flag covers. The set is topped off with an open faced chrome cover.

I've been really pushing hard to get caught up on the queue, and I've gotten into January and February for the standard queue, but the custom shop queue is still in December and January, so for the new little bit I'm going to be focusing mainly on those orders.

I've made a pretty good dent in the queue overall, hoping April will have me fully back on track.

As always, #fucktrump #fuckice and #transrightsarehumanrights

Are you sick of gold yet?

If you are we can't be friends 👀🤣

This RGMS7 set features our Trident 2/Hellfire hybrid wind, with ceramic bar magnets in both positions, black fiberboard top and gold hex poles.

And my new yard sign/No Kings sign just dropped, went two sided this time. The system is stacked against everyone of us, in favor of the Epstein class. It's unlikely that even a Dem sweep of the midterms will change anything, the mechanisms for the atrocities we're seeing were engrained in the system from the start. We need an entirely new constitution, built for the modern era with actual checks built into the system. Government needs to fear the people again.

Been a while since I've done a Sentinel, IMO one of my coolest pickups.

This set is @kieselguitars optimized, with matte black bobbins, black hex poles in the ceramic Valkyrie neck pickup, and chrome A5 TAP rails in the bridge.

I'd love to build more Sentinels, get at me if you need a 6 string rail pickup fix.

I've never done pink pearloid but damn, this looks amazing huh?

This is a pickup for @bowesguitars, featuring our Valkyrie wind with 1/4" A5 pole pieces, should sound humongous. Can't wait to see the guitar Brian puts this in.

Gold on black fiberboard is just so damned classy. This set absolutely needed gold logos too. Sets the whole thing off.

This set is a 14 degree 7 string Trident 2/Hellfire hybrid, ceramic bridge and A5 neck.

I've got a secret, but you'll have to read to the end of the post to know what it is.

Been slacking on posting finished orders, so here's a bunch!

First up is a set for @xolocustomguitars

This set features our Trident 2 wind, black hex poles, and midnight black acrylic tops.

Second set is a @strandbergguitars optimized Trident 2/Hellfire hybrid set, ceramic bridge and A5 neck, and black hex poles.

Third order is also another Strandberg optimized set, a bridge Trident 2/Hellfire Hybrid with the same specs as the second set.

4th order is a @kieselguitars optimized Valkyrie bridge, with A5 magnet and nickel flathead pole pieces .

5th order is a standard Trident 2 bridge, ceramic magnet, black and cream zebra, with nickel hex poles.

And last but not least is a 7 string noiseless HSP90, with black hex poles and A2 magnets. This features our proprietary noiseless design, and captures the pure P90 tone like no other noiseless P90 can.

The secret I mentioned above is that anyone who orders a P90/HSP90 will be getting a noiseless pickup at the standard HSP90 pricing up until the new noiseless model fully launches. This is a great way to get a discounted price on the new design, once it launches the price will be going up to reflect the difficulty and extra costs involved with the new design.

Which of these 5 orders is your favorite?

#ElysianPickups #TunedAperture #transrights #fuckice #fucktrump

Last week I finished up this order for @mittencust

Last week I finished up this order for @mittencustomguitars

Both sets feature the Trident 2/Hellfire hybrid wind with a ceramic bar in the bridge, and our new noiseless P90 in the neck position, featuring A5 magnets. Both feature black hex poles. One set is black limba tops, the other black fiberboard.

Is a proper sounding noiseless P90 something that interests you?

Here's all the baseplates and tops I cut this week

Here's all the baseplates and tops I cut this weekend, anyone see your order?

I wanted to let everyone know I've fallen a bit behind, last year was my best year on record, especially during the winter, and it's been difficult to keep up. I'm at a difficult point where I need a helper, but being able to afford a helper is a different story. And I of course still work a day job, so time is always limited. Right now I'm working on December orders, but should have December cleared out soon, thanks to all this fiberboard and my 3d printers getting some of the work done for me.

All that to say, I'm really grateful for the support I got this year past year. I took a big risk putting my politics out into the open, but I know that I'm on the right side of history, and will continue to stand up for what I think is right. The support I've gotten has given me a lot of hope that we will win.

Here's a couple other sets I've finished this week.

First set is a @schecterguitarsofficial optimized set for the Reaper 7MS. This set features our Trident I wind, ceramic bar magnets, black hex poles, and fiberboard tops. I feel like I make more Reaper 7MS sets than any other model nowadays, seems to be a very popular guitar.

The other set is a Valkyrie wind, with black and white zebra bobbins, ceramic bridge, A5 neck, and black hex poles. Always love a classic zebra look.

Hope you're all having a great weekend.
