About Me
My name is Aaron Campbell and I'm the person behind Rumpelstiltskin Pickups
I bought my first electric guitar with money I had saved washing dishes when I was 17. I had seen a fantastic player on Austin City Limits late one night and was immediately struck by his style and sound. I looked up this player as quickly as possible and found out it was none other than Stevie Ray Vaughan. I knew then that I wanted a Stratocaster and to learn the blues.
Like many of you, I got to a point in my journey on the guitar where I felt my tone could be improved or changed more to my liking. That soon lead to pickup swaps. I ended up with a few different sets, and I honestly enjoyed the different voices they all had. It was after spending a little time as an employee at Callaham Guitars that I gained the confidence to venture out on my own as a pickup maker. With my obsession for tone and a high quality product standard, I thought I would be able to offer something that could truly bring happiness to guitar players.
My goal has never been to get ahead of other pickup makers. I simply want to bring something to my customers that leaves them satisfied and feeling that every penny was well spent.
