Since the late 2010s, rubber bridge guitars have been multiplying throughout indie rock music,
even making notable appearances in pop music.
Although people have been using various approaches throughout history to give guitars a more muted sound,
the concept of using a rubber bridge is thanks to Reuben Cox, luthier and owner of Old Style Guitar Shop in Los Angeles, California.
His unique addition of a rubber bridge tastefully dampens the guitar’s sustain,
giving notes a prominent/plucky attack with a swift, yet pure, decay.
Due to the naturally quiet volume of these guitars, which are commonly smaller sized parlor guitars, a high output pickup is typically installed for...

Aeolian Fan Harp is a unique hand-made instrument created by Dust Bowl Guitars.
Based on the concept of a traditional ancient Greek wind harp, this 12-stringed non-fretted holy body instrument incorporates a 120mm PC fan under the strings near the bridge to produce its own wind!
And rather than nylon strings, it uses steel-wound strings and electric guitar pickups. When plucked while the fan is off, it has a sound similar to a baritone electric guitar.
Powering up the fan generates a lush steady drone, but the real magic begins when you bow, scrape, gliss or excite the strings and set off extraordinary cinematic clusters, sound effects and undulating drones.
This experiment was built over three long months and sampled in outstanding detail by Soundiron contributor John Valasis and Konstantinos Sakkas.

while keeping this particular vintage flavor that is so typical to "vibe" pedals.
