Geppetto Guitars has introduced its newest humbucker pickup set, The Atomic Punk. Featuring a high wind bridge and a low wind neck pickup, each pickup reflects Geppetto’s well-established ethos: made by hand, one at a time, with an emphasis on workmanship and superior tone.

The Atomic Punk bridge pickup features an AlNiCo 8 magnet and the neck is built with an AlNiCo 3 magnet, with wax potting available upon request. Atomic Punk pickup sets are available with polished nickel, raw nickel or aged nickel covers, as well as uncovered.

Geppetto Guitars owner Mike O'Donoghue developed the Atomic Punk at the behest of longtime customer and friend Jason Soules, a gigging pro who currently writes and plays guitar with the bands The Problem Eels (from Nashville TN) and Crimson Devils (Austin TX).

“I built it to Jason’s exact request,” says O’Donoghue, “and this set absolutely has the best characteristics in the bridge, neck, and middle positions. It really covers a multitude of voices as well as tones.”

The Atomic Punk bridge pickup’s DC resistance is approximately 13.5k and features an Alnico 8magnet. The Atomic Punk neck pickup DCR is 6.75k and features an Alnico 3 magnet.

Both pickups come with two-conductor wiring as standard configuration, although the AtomicPunk bridge pickup is available with optional four-conductor wiring.

The Atomic Punk pickup set carries a street price of $250 (including your choice of covers) and is directly from Geppetto Guitars via telephone at 512-630-8423, online at geppettoguitars.com as well as Austin Vintage Guitars, Austin TX.
