Railhammer Pickups officially launched in January 2012. In a very short time, Railhammer pickups have gained more than just recognition, they’ve gained a following of discerning players who believe in taking their tone to the next level. They’ve also amassed an impressive roster of touring artists, a true testament to the game-changing Railhammer design.
The Railhammer design was inspired by Joe’s personal tone quest. Which ultimately led to the innovation of rails under the wound strings for tight clear lows and poles under the plain strings for fat singing highs. From concept to development, Joe’s objective was to create the best sounding and most sonically balanced pickups on the planet. Through a lot of hard work, costly tooling, and tireless testing, he managed to realize his vision.
Joe had a goal from the very beginning to take passive guitar pickups to a new level of performance. Giving guitar players the ability to achieve the elusive tones they’d been searching for. And, while you might not be on our artist roster yet, this applies to you too.
The unique combination of rails under the wound strings and poles under the plain strings gives you tighter lows, fatter highs and a warm clarity you won’t find in any other passive pickup. It’s perfect tonal balance with no compromises.
The Railhammer Humbucker Pickups are the classic recipe that Joe Naylor has reimagined with all the sonic flavors you could as for.
Railhammer Humcutter Pickups deliver the unmistakable vintage tone and clarity of P90 Pickups, with a revolutionary dual coil design that gives you the perfect balance of P90 tone, without any of the hum!

Marty Forrer8 April 2024I purchased TI Jazz Flats and prewired Jazz control plate from Tone Merchants. Excellent products and excellent service.
Olivier Holland19 March 2024Fantastic shop stocking some top notch gear, most notably Genzler amps! Massive 'thumbs up' and recommendations!
Matt Harvey14 March 2024Legendary. Great advice from Brad regarding modding options aswell as a wicked service in the explanation as to what each can do for your tone. The concentric knob control plate was simple to install, looks amazing on the US Fender and with the series/parallel switches my tone control is spot on. A slick and stylish vintage look and an even better sounding jazz bass.
