What a good looking, perfect feeling and wonderful sounding instrument the Sisu is! 😍 To me her whole appearance is somehow otherworldly. When playing her, she lets you know she will do everything possible to make your musical dream come true, and on the other hand I can feel strongly her spiritual provenance. Wow Juha, you and your team have access to a supernatural place, where your instruments are created!
I am in love
I am in love with your humbucking pickups. I have tried and owned some of the most sought after pickups ever made – I am fortunate enough to have a good job, no kids and an understanding wife! Your humbuckers are hands down the best sounding, and best feeling, that I have ever come across.
Cruelty Free
I set out to find a completely cruelty-free guitar, only to realize how limited the pickup options really were. What’s with the beeswax in almost all pickups? We tried modern alternatives, but the sound wasn’t there—and the old-school ones squealed like crazy when I cranked up my Marshall! Then, Juha suggested I try the new humbuckers they’re making. The result? F***n’ finally! A pickup that sounds as refined as the guitar itself. And as a bonus, it happens to be a perfect fit for a fully vegan build. Sorry, neighbours—I just can’t stop playing!
No other guitar can do this
For me, the Valvebucker is definitely a gamechanger. The directness and that extra special clarity in the sound is incomparable! It has helped me out of many “stuck-in-a-box” situations because it immediately sparks creativity and spontaneous playing — you like what you hear. You forget the usual sound stereotypes you’re stuck in. You instinctively try a different approach. It feels natural. Liberating. Whether it’s single-note picking or chords. And more and more, I also use it for solo playing. The Valvebucker sound IS unique and incomparable! I have no other guitar that can do this.
Works with ease with a real rig or plugins
The new pickups sound wide and open but you still get a good grip of the tone. And they just seem to work, with a real rig or plugins! Where I was searching a long time and twisting knobs before, these pickups just work with ease. 🙂
There’s no going back
I absolutely love them. There’s no going back. All the air and clarity pushing through the tone. And the character! These Ruokangas humbuckers are simply inspiring and damn good!
A single-coil guy
I’ve been a single-coil guy almost my whole life, so getting used to humbuckers has taken some time. I’ve been playing these daily for over two weeks now. It’s coming together. The top end is just beautiful—there’s plenty of it, it cuts through, but it doesn’t hurt my ears!
I didn’t expect this
The dynamics and presence of the Valvebucker are like nothing I have heard. Each nuance of my playing is conveyed so well I feel so inspired in a way I didn’t expect. I have never had this feel and tone before.
Revolutionary
I do think the Valvebucker is revolutionary. It sounds like having a beautiful mic right under my fingers and the instrument just rings with harmonics and amazing sustain.
Never heard something like the Valvebucker
I can play with it for hours and never tired and it sings with an incredible sustain and rich sound full of harmonics. Honestly never heard anything like that from any of my many guitars.
