Musical equipment upstart, rebelSonic of Toronto, announced that they will be unveiling the Monolith™, “the biggest pickup on the planet” at the Winter NAMM 09 at the Eastwood® Guitar booth #1331 Hall E at show in Anaheim, CA.
The Monolith™ is not just the biggest pickup on the planet; it’s a completely new concept in pickup sound and design. The Monolith is actually three totally different sounds, not available in any other pickup, all packed into one seriously oversized shell. The three Monolith sounds are: JackHAMMER - a Humbucker with major league attitude, cementMIXER - a deep, dirty sludge tone great for that Clapton woman tone, and icePICK - a P90 on steroids that cuts through the thickest mix. The result is one guitar that takes the place of three guitars - that’s revolutionary sonic engineering.
