I'm Chris, and I've loved guitars for as long as I can remember. I got my first guitar when I was 13, over 30 years ago, and I've been hooked ever since. It wasn't long before I started taking them apart and tinkering with them. I even got myself into a little trouble once for completely disassembling my uncle's Strat. Oops!

Over the years, I've worn quite a few hats, working as a guitar teacher, electronics technician, chef, and eventually pickup maker. Through it all, one thing has never changed: my love for guitars and the endless pursuit of great tone.

Today, building pickups is my full-time profession, and I'm proud to be the sole owner and operator of Fatpups. Since 2015, I've handcrafted thousands of pickups for guitarists around the world, and I'm grateful to be doing something I genuinely love.

If you have any questions or there's anything I can help you with, I'd be happy to hear from you!
