RAKE is an experimental self-bult guitar that brings together thirty years of experience with playing the guitar, various modifications and preparations, and new innovative inventions for the guitar.
It is based on Yuri Landman’s ‘White Eagle’ and features many of the special features of his designs.
RAKE has three pickups and a piezo mic, each with its own individual output.
Underneath the pick guard is a Piezo microphone that makes the entire guitar as a playfield, excellent for percussive sounds and feedback.
The bass string has a dedicated pickup, which amplifies the low end compared to the main outs and can be separately mixed.
When the amplifier preamp is overdriven, this pickup produces a comfortable rough ‘low-end’.
