The Planet Tone Difference
Great tone does not have to be expensive. Since 2008, Planet Tone has been handcrafting pickups. Our goal is to make a great sounding pickup and offer them at a great price. Made with care in our shop just outside Denver, Colorado, we make each pickup to order to ensure a personalized custom experience. You get handcrafted boutique tone - rich and dynamic - built with exceptional quality that lasts. We only use premium materials including 50s & 60s vintage correct American made copper wire, Alnico magnets, nickel-silver baseplates, high quality fiber or humbucker bobbins and more. Experience Tone...for less!
