Anyone know anything about them/ if they are still in production?
Seen a builder on IG with a Darkstar (recreation of the Guild Bi-Sonic pickup in the Starfire basses) in the neck of a Jag bass... looked badass.
He told me that it sounds amazing.
I am intrigued.

To my knowledge he closed up shop. I see darkstars on ebay at ridiculous prices like $500 for one.

Big bummer. I want to try some out.
Anyone know anyone else who makes anything close to them?

Maybe contact the Seymour Duncan custom shop. I think if anyone could do a repro, it'd probably be them.

Curtis Novak does a Bisonic in a Gibson EB size:
