Tone Wood: The vibe of the sixties



A friend of mine bought a Leica type 240 camera which looked exactly the same as the ones they made 50 years ago. Will he get the vibe of the pictures known from the sixties with his new Leica? 


Since a few years a replica of the famous DeArmond 1000 and 1100 guitar floating pickup is on the market. It is just a exact copy of how Rowe Industries made it 50 years ago, It has no software controlled functionality, memory card or USB connector. 


It is only some copperwire a few magnets and a housing. Perfect to get the vibe from the sixties.
