Story
Curious about microtonal music but not ready to commit to a full microtonal instrument? This Guitstarter project offers a simple way in.
Our Microtonal Conversion Neck is designed as a bolt-on replacement for standard 6-string guitars, letting you explore entirely new tonal landscapes without changing your whole setup. Built from solid maple with a rosewood fretboard, it features 30 microtonal frets for expanded expression, along with 6 standard frets in the upper register, so familiar territory is always within reach.
It’s the perfect bridge between traditional playing and microtonal experimentation: swap it in, tune up, and start discovering.
