Dan Kubin V3/23 Sidewinder - Black Brass RCA
NEW Dan Kubin V3/23 Sidewinder with RCA!
"The V3/23 follows the same concept as the past V3r, but with a focus on what makes a Sidewinder a Sidewinder. Hard hitting, effortless, and zippy. -Intended for experienced artists who don’t want to mess around.
The 23 model is more reminiscent of the original V3r from 2019, but with some enhancements in the tuning longevity.
We stripped it down a little more, and added in the extra performance.
The stroke wheel has been simplified with having 3 timing marks instead of numbers. The marks are of different lengths, with the longest mark signifying the longer stroke range, a middle mark that is the default setting, and a short mark to signify the shorter stroke range.
The sound of the machine has been enhanced in comparison to the 2nd and 3rd variation V3r. Plus the machine now sits a little lower, providing more ergonomics."
Thanks for looking - Dan.
RCA Specifications:
- RCA version is wired for the harder hit mode only using RCA connection. If using a clip cord on this version, they are wired opposite of the standard clip cord version, use Positive side DOWN for hard hit, Positive up for a more muted hit.
- This RCA motor housing was designed around a Critical Universal battery pack, but fits with most battery packs I have tried, such as Musotoku, Ink Claw, and Papa.
- This will also work good with a right-angle RCA cord.
- Clip Cord option still works, it is just wired backwards.
- The position of the battery makes the machine’s balance point much more forward, like a pen.
Machine Specs:
- Black Brass Frame with Black Hardware(*Finish may vary)
- DK Thumbscrew, new Armature Bar, and updated Stroke Wheel for improved performance
- The renowned rotary liner. Effortlessly sink any size line by just grazing the skin.
- The motor is the same as the V2-V4 and V7 Sidewinder, which has proven the test of time. It has been a favorite of the long time Sidewinder collectors.
- Vice-Lock that easily tightens on nearly any tube
- Great for all varieties of Line Work or as a Fast Shader/Packer
- Timing mark on the cam and frame for setting the impact screw. (Just like the V5 and V6)
-
Marked stroke dial so you can easily play with the stroke without fear of losing that sweet spot. You can’t make it too long or too short
Machine Setup:
- Standard Needle on Bar: wrap a thick rubber band around the motor cap and across the front of the machine to add needle bar tension. It is recommended that you use Thick Rubber Bands and Dan's Perfect Nipples.
- Cartridges: wrap a rubber band around the motor cap and over the top of the armature bar to counteract the cartridge's upward tension. Thick or standard rubber bands both work, it will just depend on the tension of the cartridge membrane or band to determine with rubber band provides the proper counter resistance.
V3R and V3/23 Sidewinders are engineered, designed, and tested by Dan, milled in his most trusted machine shop in Kansas City, then built by DK certified trained technicians at the Workhorse facility in Michigan. All other models are built by Dan and his team in Kansas City. V3/23s go through rigorous QC checks and are all ran through our testing machine to lightly break in. One year warranty on all models. V3R and V3/23 are serviced by Workhorse, all others are serviced by Dan or one of his certified technicians found on his website
*Do NOT connect power to the RCA plug and Clip Cord connection at the same time. It may cause damage to your power supply, battery, or machine.

Dan Kubin Perfect Nipples
The Black Half Hard Nipples are Dan's most recent version of these custom made grommets, designed to be a little softer to help combat spitting issues some folks have, yet still stronger than standard nipples to hold up to the aggressive nature of hard hitting machines such as his Sidewinder.
The Red Full Hard Nipples are the OG Dan Kubin custom grommets made from the most durable rubber Dan could find. They are extra rigid providing a little more hit PLUS the strength to withstand the aggressive nature of Dan's machines. We are bringing these back again now as many people have requested them and know how to tattoo well with them with no spitting issues.
Both versions are custom MADE IN THE USA. These are the only Tattoo Nipples we know of that are Made in the USA. Plus Dan's Thickass Rubbers are the only tattoo rubber bands offered that are Made in the USA. It costs more to do this and it is a bit more challenging, but worth it!
