HN3+ Humbucker Electric Guitar Pickup

They have been making pickups even longer than guitars!

As Tom recalled in Premier Guitar, July 2010:

    "The first year, 1984, I ran the company from my garage, and the plan was to just make bodies and necks. I wasn’t planning on being a guitar manufacturer. What fed our family that first year was that Schecter Japan needed American-made pickups. The American Schecter factory closed a few months after I left, and nobody knew how to make pickups. Schecter Japan contacted me and we sat down at Carl’s Jr. and made a deal for me to make them 300 Strat pickups. I set up a little pickup-making shop in the kitchen of our house. After I got through making necks and bodies in our garage during the day, we sat up making pickups every night. That first year we lived on those pickups, and we still make them to this day."

We use the highest quality parts and cutting edge technology, along with vintage winding machines and techniques. Yes, in addition to electric guitars, we make the best electric guitar pickups in the world as well!

HN Series Pickups

    For bridge application, another time-honored Anderson humbucker series—medium-hot to hot output, focused-field (mid-concentrated frequency response) bridge pickups for an experience of more mid-muscle without sounding “pinched”—still full bodied and surprisingly musical, even at higher power levels.

HN 3+: Slightly hotter and fatter output version of the HN3 with a bit more gain and smooth saturation—while still remaining very harmonically rich.
