The Flat Iron also expands on our longstanding relationships with Lollar Pickups and Mastery Bridge. A pair of Lollar Low Wind Imperial humbuckers delivers an open and articulate take on classic humbucker tone, with exceptional clarity, dynamics, and presence. The Mastery M7 bridge provides the stability, precision, and performance Mastery is known for while fitting naturally into the Flat Iron’s distinctive design.

Custom Design
Built in Chicago by Black Bobbin in partnership with Lockhorn Instruments, the Flat Iron brings together the influence of Harmony’s mid-century designs, the legacy of Lyon & Healy in Wicker Park, and some of our most trusted collaborators. It’s a guitar rooted in Chicago’s instrument-making history and brought together in a distinctly Black Bobbin design.
