We asked @mastodon’s Bill Kelliher to tell us about his Mojotone Hellbender pickups and his life-long search for perfect guitar tone. So he did – and he gave us a great recipe for Sweet Potato Hash while doing it.
Topics covered include: why his dad tried to rid the world of distortion (and how that made the young Bill improvise), his worst gear mishaps, his favorite guitars (he’s owned around 400), thick necks and death pickles.
Also includes: some brain-frying riffage.
HELLBENDER PICKUPS
Mojotone say: “Brutality and beauty: we took this project on with the man himself as he explored his own metamorphosis. These Hellbender pickups really are a product of Bill’s journey in its entirety; uniquely winding range around his life experiences.
“Bill Kelliher wanted a pickup that had the versatility to play every sound and tone found in his collection, tones he’s collected over a lifetime.
“With its distributed coil design, using two different wire gauges for increased dynamics and smooth coil-tapped tones, the Hellbender pickup set offers versatility to players in need of every sound from crushing high gain crunch to delicate and lush cleans.”
