CONTEST IS CLOSED
I’ve given out pedals, enclosures, cables.. so why not pickups! I’m really excited about this give away, and I think you guys will really dig this. Basically, Porter Pickups is willing to give a set of hand wound pickups, but rather limit the type, they’re willing to give away a custom set to the winner!
Porter Pickups has one Tele model, three Strat Models (50’s, 6o’s and Modern), five different Humbucker models, and they’re even offering a Porter Anthem PAF clones. Normally their sets range around $180 for most styles with the Anthem PAFs being a little more at $260.
The winner will be able to choose the model they want, covers/bobbins and they’ll wind it just for the winner. This way the pickups will match up with your style (wound hot.. not so-hot, etc).
Okay, so now we’ve established… this is a pretty cool give away, I now want to talk about Porter Pickups since they’re being so generous with this sponsored give away!
Porter Pickups is owned by Brian Porter and is located in Boise, ID. They have a wide selection of pickups ranging from humbuckers to Strat replacements to P90 replacements to Tele replacement to his Custom Series PAF pickups. Porter will also do custom orders as well. Along with offering great hand wound pickups, they also offer repair and rewind services for damaged or dead pickups, a good way to get your vintage guitar back in action!
PorterPickups.com has a ton of stuff to go over. Plenty of clips and info, along with info on dealers, builders and artists. I also see that Brian has his own pickup blog.
Okay, now to the give away. So how do you enter yourself to potentially win the Custom Porter Pickups Give Away?
