Clear Humbucker

Porter Clear Humbuckers have a brighter and more clear tone with a bit more treble. They sound great distorted and really cut through in a band or solo setting. Their tone can be used for a wide range of style They feature a Ceramic Magnet, for huge and articulate leads, and chunky riffs. Typically the Clears are wound over the 10K mark and they have a nice aggressive tone

Popular Neck-Bridge Combos (Order your individual Clear or Set with the buttons to the right)

 Classic-Clear This is a great combo for those who need to go from clean and mean to “rip your face off” leads. The clear gives you even more cut through in the bridge position. if you play a lit of heavier riffs and use a lot of gain, this is a great combination.
 Clear-Overdrive With the clear in the neck position, you get great articulation and clean notes, but still have a rocking lead bridge..

Style Suggestions: Great for Hard Rock and Soloing. They would also work well for a brighter blues/country type sound depending on your gear setup. These pickups are just what the name suggest, CLEAR, and will especially shimmer with a guitar that has a maple fretboard. Typically used as a bridge pickup, but a neck also sounds great for the right application. Although ceramic magnets can often be associated with cheap sounding pickups, we find that the clears fit right in for shredding guitars and metal and high gain applications, but can also be used for rock and blues if you need a clean tone that can mix well in a band setting.
