Dialtone Pickups = Interest pique'd.

Is there a demo video of these?

Not yet. I just released these a week or two ago. Working on it though.

Looking forward to when you have that.

Good to hear that the Dialtone people are good folks. That will help them as they grow.
 
Looks like yet another company has had the same basic idea Alembic had forty some years ago - take a low impedance PU with wide, flat frequency response, and along with the necessary active preamp also use a resonant filter to vary the frequency response.

Building the controls into the PU is sorta new, but Seymour Duncan did make active bass PU's with little switches on them to change the EQ twenty years ago or so.

Not that any of this is bad - an idea doesn't have to be brand new to be good, and I'd be at least a bit curious if Dialtone offered some bass soapbars.

Those were the original Seymour Duncan Basslines, with dip switches for low-mid-hi.  They're hard to find now, and I'd love a pair of the J set.  I used to install quite a few of those and they grew on me to be my fave set of actives for a J type of bass.  Still dig the MM style or a M/J ultimately.

How about our brother, TroubledTreble's, new offering.  Reminiscent of a pickup made by a highly litigious company whose name rhymes with Schmickenbacker, if I understand correctly.  Ken does great work.

Actually the pickup it resembles was made by Teisco. Only the exterior is similar. The internals are my own.

I give you.... the face only a mother could love :tard:... IMO

Dude.  That guitar is insanely beautiful.  How does it play/sound?
