My good friend @mikekhitz and his Solana loaded with @emgpickups these pickups sound amazing! Thanks for sharing Mike and EMG!
.
🎸Today on EMGtv Mike Krompass performs an original number, “Assassin”, using the EMG Jim Root ‘Daemonum’ Set.
Mike is a Canadian musician, songwriter, and producer known for his versatile skills as a guitarist. He has been involved in various facets of the music industry, contributing to a wide range of projects across different genres.
Enjoy!! 🎸
First off, thanks to everyone who watched my last video. I truly appreciate all of the support and encouragement that was shown for myself as well as the people who have been here at Iconic Guitars creating these amazing instruments. While it is still a very fresh and ongoing battle, the words of support have been greatly appreciated.
So, I wanted to have an opportunity to announce what was next for Iconic Guitars. That is still a plan that is in the incubation stage. Although, I have gained some clarity on one thing. I simply cannot see a way that makes financial sense to continue in California. The process of shutting down and vacating this Carlsbad facility, finding a new location and moving all of our equipment to a new the facility, getting it all set up and running once again is not insurmountable. However, there are many other mitigating factors that make it less than feasible. Rising costs of business, rising insurance premiums, inability to even have required insurance, regulations, taxes, etc. etc.
The next guitars produced by me and Iconic Guitars will be from Nashville, TN. I have had a house there for years and am looking forward to getting the next chapter started. There are still a lot of details to be worked out. I’m not sure of that timeline as of yet due to several factors.
Thank you for taking the time to watch this video and your support is greatly appreciated!

Iconic Guitars Founder, Kevin Proctor, announces lay-offs and reorganization
On January 19th, 2024 Iconic Guitars Founder, Kevin Proctor, makes the announcement that all employees have been laid off and will begin reorganization immediately. All existing orders will be filled and the business of Iconic Guitars will continue after a short pause to relocate from our current Carlsbad, CA location. There is indeed a reason this has come to this. Please watch the video for a full explanation.
We are very much looking forward to getting out from under this bad situation we have been working under and getting on with the thing we absolutely most enjoy, being Iconic Guitars.
Thank you for watching and thank you for your continued support. It is why we do this.

How will you spec your new Solana in 2024?
Is this the perfect spec Solana Evolution?
We recently installed these @seymourduncanpickups Vintage P90 Silencer pickups on @joshdela ‘s Carlsbad VM and they have been incredible!
Being able to get the iconic P90 sound with none of the noise is important to gigging and recording musicians alike. And we feel they fit right in with our Carlsbad model!
