About Me

Check out our guitar and bass pickups at www.searcystringworks.com

Clint started playing electric bass and guitar in bands circa 1982. Never quite satisfied with the status quo of instruments he's been tinkering on them for almost as long. Searcy String Works was born out of that and we offer handmade instruments and handwound guitar and bass pickups on our website. We make our music using the computer to record Clint's creations along with other sounds.
