Joe Naylor (Reverend Guitars, Naylor Amps, All-Tone Speakers, Armor Gold Cables) has launched a new line of pickups aimed at the rock market.

Railhammer pickups feature a patent pending design designed to take advantage of a special combination of rails and poles.

Thin rails under the wound strings are designed to sense only a narrow section of string, reducing note smearing and muddiness.

 

Oversize 6mm diameter poles under the plain strings are designed to sense a wide section of string, increasing thickness and sustain. This fatter tone keeps the plain strings sounding fluid and full.

 

The tonal balance allows the player to adjust their amp for a tight percussive tone on the wound strings without the plain strings sounding thin, harsh or sterile, according to Joe Naylor.

 

The current line includes five different humbucker models.

 

Features:

  • Height tapered steel rails
  • 6mm dia. steel poles
  • Polycarbonate bobbins
  • Six screw German Silver baseplate
  • Vacuum wax potted coils
  • Alnico 5 or ceramic magnet depending on model
  • Four-conductor wiring with independent ground
  • Universal spacing that works with most any guitar
