Pitch Pilot are giving your guitar wings with pitch bending for individual strings giving your playing a spicy kick.<\/span><\/h4>\n

Whammy bars are great fun but do you ever wish you could use them to pitch bend just one string? That’s what Pitch Pilot<\/p>\n

are trying to do with their custom pitch bend tool which you apply to individual strings for bend control over that string only with the push of a finger.<\/p>\n

The man behind the Pitch Pilot, Tim Clarke started his journey to creating it over 6 years ago when he hand crafted his first prototype with scrap metal. He felt inspired by the pitch benders of old like the “B-Bender<\/a>“, but Clarke wanted to create something that could be put on and taken off of a guitar as easily as a whammy bar, rather than a permanent modification.<\/p>\n

Clarke says: “The Pitch Pilot allows for new musical expressions, allowing guitarists to expand their sound repertoires… With a quick and simple alteration, guitarists can create endlessly dynamic musical sounds unlike anything previously possible.”<\/p>\n

Guitar World got a lucky exclusive trial with the Pitch Pilot bars. Paul Riario for Guitar World says: “Pitch Pilot is an innovative mod that allows you to transform your guitar into a bender on any string. It’s really easy to use, quick to install, and allows you to add some dynamic bends to your playing. Definitely check it out.”<\/p>\n
