Unleash next-level control and performance with The Betty tattoo machine by Deke Harms. Built for artists who demand both speed and precision, The Betty features an oversized armature bar that extends your stroke range while delivering smooth, consistent motion at the bar tip. This means fewer interruptions, cleaner lines, and effortless saturation—even during long sessions.
Fine-tune your stroke in seconds. The Betty’s rear thumbscrew lets you adjust your stroke from 1mm to 5mm+ without any tools, locking firmly into place with a satisfying click. That versatility makes it a one-stop workhorse for lining, packing, shading, and dot-whipping. Run it soft and slow for delicate gradients, or push it hard for solid color and bold saturation.
Feel the comfort of balance and control. Designed with the heft and feel of a traditional coil, The Betty sits low on the tube for improved ergonomics and weight distribution. That balance reduces wrist strain and fatigue, giving you the stability you need for long, focused sessions.
