Rick Saveria’s tattoo machine company, CTPS Saveria, has been hand-crafting premium tattoo machines in Argentina for over 37 years. The company is widely recognized as an industry leader and the premier South American tattoo machine builder. 
They create each of their tattoo machines by hand using the highest-quality materials available–a process that takes an average of eight hours per machine. All CTPS Saveria tattoo machines run exceptionally well out of the box, and they operate powerfully at very low voltages.
The company first made a name for itself with the Toro-Loco, the original side-by-side coil tattoo machine. CTPS Saveria now offers micro liner coil tattoo machines, standard liners, shaders, micro painters, and standard painters, as well as several rotary tattoo machine options.
CTPS Saveria Micro Liner Machines
CTPS Saveria currently offers two micro liner tattoo machines: The Faustina Micro Liner Tattoo Machine and the Mayruch Micro Liner by Rick Saveria. 
As with all CTPS Saveria tattoo machines, both the Faustina and the Mayruch micro liners are handmade. Each micro liner has a small nucleus and coils that make them perform best with groupings of up to 7 needles. Both styles come with 8-wrap short coils, 50/47 capacitors, brass front and rear binding posts, and brass contact screws. They weigh in at just 220g (~7.76 oz.) each.
The most special component of CTPS Saveria’s micro liner coil tattoo machines are their frames. They’re handmade from iron with brass finishing that give these micro liners an artistic finished look. If you want to add a beautiful, powerful and super-reliable micro liner to your arsenal of tattoo equipment, you can’t do better than Rick Saveria’s Faustina and Mayruch Micro Liner Tattoo Machines.
CTPS Saveria Liner Tattoo Machines
CTPS Saveria now offers nine different liner tattoo machines so you can find the one that best suits your style. Each liner is handcrafted in Argentina with great care, using only the finest materials. All options come with 47/63 capacitors, brass contact screws, brass front and rear binding posts, and iron frames in a variety of styles and finishes. With the exception of Rick Saveria’s Premium Tattoo Lining Machine (shown in the top-right corner below), all CTPS Saveria liners come with 8-wrap coils. That particular Premium option comes with 9-wrap coils and can be used with groupings of 1-13 tattoo needles, whereas most of the other options work best with smaller needle groupings.

CTPS Saveria Shader Tattoo Machines
When it comes to shaders, CTPS Saveria spoils you with options. There are currently 13 different Rick Saveria shader tattoo machines from which you can choose. Most of the shaders come with 8-wrap coils, but there’s also a 9-wrap shader coil tattoo machine option that can accommodate larger needle groupings (shown to the left). CTPS Saveria even makes a Lefty Shader specifically for left-handed tattoo artists! All options are handmade in Argentina using a detailed process that takes 8 hours to complete on average. Whichever frame style you choose, your new CTPS Saveria shader will come with a 47/63 capacitor, a brass contact screw, brass front and rear binding posts, and an iron frame with a stunning finish.
CTPS Saveria Onyx Shader Tattoo Machines
The CTPS Saveria Onyx Shader #1 and Onyx Shader #2 Tattoo Machines give you two design options with equal style, power and reliability. Both versions of the Onyx Shader were designed exclusively for painting and shading. These powerful coil tattoo machines each have a 9.5mm nucleus and the ability to tattoo with groupings of up to 15 tattoo needles. Both Onyx Shader options come with 8-wrap long coils, 47/63 capacitors, brass front and rear binding posts, brass contact screws, and iron frames finished with black oil.
