Yes, it seems everyone's favorite music executive, henry juszkiewicz of gibson,  has invented (or purchased, and THEN invented) just about everything significant in guitar design in the last...50 years or so....

Seems he invented the hex pickup too. 

sigh.

To be accurate, this patent is for a hex pickup for digital guitar...but... this dude is just amazing.  Is my sarcasm coming through well enough via internet?  I doubt it.

Don't worry it happens to me as well. Whenever see HJ on my monitor I start to see red for a while. Look away and think of other brands for a while and you will feel better!  ;D

I only wish it snapped at the neck and then the body, hitting him right in the head   ;D
Now that would be something to see   ;)

So whats next up after the Firebird X flop  ?
