I
wound my first pickup in 1990 while attending the Roberto-Venn School of Luthiery and since then I have worked for numerous
companies in the guitar industry�from large guitar manufacturers to small custom builders like Valley Arts and Tobias�handling
everything from running custom shops and artist relations programs to entire guitar divisions.
I started Arcane, Inc.
with the goal of producing the highest quality, most uncompromised, hand-made pickups in the industry. Since then I have
worked with many respected names in the industry. As a consultant, I helped Tyler Guitars founder and namesake Jim Tyler
(www.tylerguitars.com ) develop the Tyler pickup line, and built the first 500 Tyler pickups
myself in the Arcane shop. I also worked on a project with highly respected pickup builder Tom Holmes that eventually became
his Japanese line (Prior to the formation of Arcane Inc.). Today I consult guitar companies on pickup design and
construction, build pickups on an OEM basis for James Trussart Guitars (www.jamestrussart.com
) and also sell to artist musicians and distributors all over the world in search of better tone and the finest in custom
pickups. This work is not just a business�it�s a passion. I have a deep understanding of what makes a tonally superior
pickup. The products that come out of my shop reflect unparalleled craftsmanship and are the culmination of all the knowledge
I have gained from my years of working in the guitar industry. I invite you to experience the best quality pickups
you will ever play. Rob Timmons Owner & Founder Arcane, Inc.
