Hand Wound Guitar Pickups

Porter Pickups. We hand wind every pickup we make for maximum tone. Porter Pickups started out as the main pickups featured in all Porter Guitars. They are still the featured pickup in all Porter Guitars, but are now available for sale for use in other guitars. The word is out, and the tone is on it's way! Because we are also guitar makers, we can match the pickup models to the woods and type of guitar you have, to insure you get the tone you are after.

Porter Pickups Welcomes Guitarist Sam Weaver

08.04.09

Sam Weaver is lead guitar player for Todd Agnew. Be sure to catch them on their fall tour. He plays custom wound Porter Single Coils wound to early 60's specs. Sam is a tone freak and was very impressed with Porter Pickups: "The single-coil Strat pickups offered by Porter Pickups are outstanding examples of quality craftsmanship, vintage tone, and bulletproof construction. Brian personally wound me a set of custom '61 Strat pickups and I've had them on my main Strat now for 6 months. They've held up to touring the US and Canada and consistently sound great, night after night. I am using Vox and Divided by 13 amps. Thanks to Porter for making a killer product."
