I am thrilled to unveil my latest creation: a 6-string tantalum model. The top of this guitar showcases an intricately deeply engraved honeycomb pattern, offering a striking visual and tactile experience along with a practical function by providing weight relief. This unique design is carved into a solid piece of RichLite, an eco-friendly material crafted from recycled paper embedded into phenolic resin. It is celebrated for its durability and stability, making it an excellent choice for this innovative instrument.

Additionally, this guitar features a pioneering polyetheretherketone nut. PEEK’s ability to transmit vibrations (something I discovered by mistake while experimenting several years ago) with unparalleled efficiency makes it an exceptional choice for clarity and consistency in tuning stability and sound. The material is virtually indestructible in this application and will never wear down, ensuring long-lasting performance.

Moreover, this guitar is equipped with custom unfinished Alumitone humbuckers, laser engraved with ‘tantalum’, the name of my flagship model. Although these are 7-string Alumitone humbuckers, they have been chosen purely for their aesthetic appeal in this 6-string guitar. Lace Alumitone humbuckers are renowned for their revolutionary design, utilizing an aluminum exoskeleton instead of traditional copper. This results in less resistance and higher output, creating a current-driven design as opposed to conventional voltage-based pickups.
