Description
The Icon, Reimagined: The Christian Blade Collection
Classic jazz-age soul meets modern precision. Our take on the legendary Charlie Christian pickup delivers that unmistakable, thick-yet-articulate “electric-acoustic” voice that defined a generation—now refined for the contemporary player.
These aren’t just pickups; they’re high-fidelity instruments. Crafted with a stunning black and white acrylic top and a radiused steel blade, they look as sharp as they sound. Whether you’re chasing the smoky warmth of a 1940s jazz club or the gritty, oversized punch of a wide-open valve amp, these blades deliver unmatched clarity and sustain.
