QuickSnap

Explore a way to treat pickups as swappable cartridges

Designed around real instruments and real workflows

Welcome

Trying pickups is harder than it should be.

Most players know the feeling:
you’re curious about a different pickup, but testing it properly means tools, soldering, time, and a point of no return. So you either commit blindly, rely on demos, or just don’t try at all.

QuickSnap was created to remove that friction, and let curiosity win.

What QuickSnap is (in a nutshell)

QuickSnap lets you explore pickup tones without permanent changes.

It uses snap-in cartridges that let you temporarily swap pickups, listen under real playing conditions, and decide calmly — without repeated soldering, routing, or permanent modifications.

You play. You listen. You swap.

Demo video

This is not a finished product. It’s a functional system used to validate whether this idea makes sense in real workflows.

The video shows the result, not every supporting step. Supporting tools exist to ensure consistency and reliability.

How it works

One-time install

You install a connector once. From then on, pickups behave like modules.

Pickup-ready

Each pickup is prepared once.
After that, swapping is repeatable and fast.

Swap, test, decide

Drop in.
Play, listen.
No rewiring.

Who it’s for

Players who actually swap things

Guitar & bass players who experiment, play in more than one band, or simply want different setups without the “open the cavity and pray” routine.

Foam-supported, body-mounted pickups

Designed around pickups that sit in a routed cavity and use foam for height adjustment (e.g., Jazz Bass / Precision Bass-style body mounting, Strat / Tele-style body routes, and similar guitar & bass setups that rely on foam or springs in the cavity).

FAQ

Is this a finished product?

No. This is an early-stage concept looking for feedback. It is not optimized for mass production and it is not the final industrial design. Design decisions will come after concept validation.

Is soldering required?

Once. After that, no.

Does it affect tone?

No. It’s a passive connection. Same signal, less friction.
