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!

ExcellentBased on 49 reviewsJoshua Haslemore17 August 2024I cannot recommend Brad at Tone Merchants enough. I picked up an Ibanez AS73 and have been looking to really get some life into it. I am by no means a guitar tech expert in any way shape or form. After doing a bit of research on what I was after, Brad took me through some options to help get the best out of this guitar. Came back with some gorgeous Lollar Imperials and even split coil for fun. The end result far exceeded my expectations. A completely different guitar and a super easy process to get sorted. Brad is great at communicating and helping you get what you are after if you're thinking about making some upgrades or adjustments to your guitar(s), go see Brad!Patricia Danielle Tan13 August 2024Amazing product range hard to find elsewhere in NZ, with responsive and friendly service to go with super quick shipping for in stock items.

A+Andy Cheal22 July 2024Brad at Tone Merchants is awesome to deal with, up front, honest, friendly and great communication. I will not hesitate to use him again in the future or recommend him to anyone.moose20 July 2024Great local store sourcing in hard to get parts from abroad. Great seller, really smooth service and was even kind enough to throw in a great recommendation for a local luthier to fit the parts.Shane Hinton16 July 2024Brad has been super helpful and responsive aiding my various tone quests, starting with Fralin pickups and more recently, some Genzler amplification. It’s great to deal with someone so passionate and knowledgeable about their products and willing to go the extra mile for his customers. Good things!Doug Watt11 July 2024I brought an Aria bass from Tone Merchants. The process was effortless, good communications, fast shipping and the bass was securely packaged.
