Thanks John,
The Alumitones , do sound very good, Super Quiet, I've also made the Split Switch -- definitely 2 different sounds both desirable.
Sonically the Alumitones are super flat and even, kind of like a CD Verses Analog. I have numerous videos of these and others @
Samples of GeorgeBoard Steel Guitars on You Tube
Another thing is the Alumitone is abut 30% more powerful than a typical Pick Up.
I've engineered the pocket depth , a little deeper to sit about .170 below the strings.
This evens out the output near to other pups.
It is easy to lift it with shims we laser cut to the pocket shape from wood veneer at .020 thickness to pretty much any distance below the strings desired. |

Great sounding, looking steels, George! Have you sold any to Los Angeles players?, love to check one out in person. Maybe message me with contact info if that's OK with your customer(s).
