Welcome to the official SomeTalentlessHack shop — an ever‑changing collection of vintage instruments, quirky synths, circuit‑bent gear, and modded oddities from the mind and workshop based in Illinois.
I specialize in:
Circuit bending & mods — transforming classic Casio, Yamaha, and other vintage units into unpredictable noise machines, glitch synths, and one‑of‑a‑kind playable art.
Vintage restoration — repairing and revitalizing keyboards, rack synths, drum machines, and audio hardware to keep their original magic alive.
Creative builds — adding features like pitch control, sustain mods, custom outputs, and more for use in live experimental sets or studio sessions.
Every piece here is tested, described honestly, and photographed clearly — whether it’s pristine original gear or a heavily‑modified instrument meant to push sound into uncharted territory.
If you’re a collector, sound designer, noise artist, or just want something different, you’ll find it here.
Feel free to reach out with questions, requests, or to talk shop — I’m always happy to chat about gear, bending techniques, and the stories behind these instruments.
