Radius Utility Patent

Designed In-House

The Bowtie pickup.

Hand-assembled. Machine-precise. Remarkably alive.

All Arcform pickups are hand assembled from precision laser cut vulcanized fiber bobbins, individually inspected and matched alnico 5 magnets, and chrome plated nickel covers. Each pair is a matched opposite set, wound with a state-of-the-art programmable CNC machine enabling us to produce a consistent, brilliant, rich sounding, single coil, with remarkable hum-bucking abilities in the center position.

Wiring

Dual pickup standard wiring on the Radius features a three-way switch (bridge → hum-bucking center → neck) with single volume and tone, low-pass at ¾ tone.

Beyond Electronic.

More and more of our world is generated electronically. Feeds are populated by algorithms, music is composed by models, memory itself drifts toward the synthetic. There is now a way to anchor what actually happened. A tap of an Arcform instrument creates a Moment — a signed, verifiable record that you, this instrument, and this point in time existed together. Stack enough of them and you have provenance: real interactions, real expressions of human emotion through music, compounding into a verified history of a life lived through the objects that carried it. No batteries. No GPS. No tracking — the chip only speaks when you tap it. Nothing forged. Nothing fabricated. Yours.
Your guitar has a story — not a surveillance device.
