Jason Lollar has been a professional luthier since graduating from
Roberto-Venn School of Luthiery in Phoenix, Arizona in 1975. However, his
interests and expertise go well beyond building guitars. In addition to
designing and producing extraordinary archtop, solid-body electric and lap steel
guitars, Jason is a noted authority on nearly everything related to electric
pickups.
He is the sole author of Basic Pickup Winding and Complete Guide to
Making Your Own Pickup Winder and contributed to Bart Hopkin's Getting
A Bigger Sound: Pickups and Microphones for Your Musical Instrument.
Jason's book has been credited as the spark that created a new movement in
aftermarket and boutique pickup manufacturers. Additionally, many amateur and
professional luthiers and guitar electronics tinkerers have learned a great deal
about pickups using Jason's book. Even if you never plan to wind your own
pickups, his book is a valuable reference for any musician intersted in gaining
a better understanding of tone and sound in electric instruments.
Professional musicians and instrument manufacturers have increasingly turned
to Jason's products to get superior sound. His client list—which includes many
internationally-known artists—continues to grow rapidly.
When he's not winding pickups, building guitars or writing books, Jason can
be seen playing guitar and Hammond B3 with a variety of local musicians on his
island home outside of Seattle, Washington.
