Bendy Mastery pickups – any info?

barnstorm · May 2020

Noticed Bilt have been using these, made by Mastery, on a limited-run model. Anybody know what's going on underneath the covers? No info available that I can see.

Oh they're cool!

Oh yes! Proper Forbidden Planet / schlock 20s/30s early sci-fi vibe.

Not much out there but there is an Instagram page for these, @nothingguitars ;;

I believe they're built by Bilt in collaboration with John Woodland of Mastery.

Bill Frisell got the first one. He talks about it here https://www.guitarmoderne.com/gear-2/exclusive-bill-frisells-amazing-new-guitar#more-4431

Good knowledge – have sent a follow request. Hopefully they'll share more details at some point. Will be a bit disappointing if they turn out to be completely conventional underneath!

There are only so many shapes you can make a coil, so it's either a straight coil and a lot of empty space, or it's smaller coils filling the space.

Looks fun either way
