My music gear

These are the pieces of physical and digital equipment I use for music production. I do my best to keep this list up-to-date.

I do not own any physical instrument except for the 8-string guitar that I built myself from raw wood. I do not believe wood significantly influences the tone of an electric guitar, but I love woodworking and woods so I used sapele and wenge for both body and neck, and ebony for the fretboard. It is equipped with a set of Guitarmory Polaris pickups.
