Our mission
Unlocking your guitar’s potential with Lambertones Pickups
What we do
At Lambertones we believe that 90% of tonal quality is directly dependant on the quality of your pickups. Yet, most guitars priced under $1500 come installed with mass-produced and imported pickups and electronics that use low-tolerance winding specs, sub-par quality wire, unregulated tensions, and improper magnet selection. Our handmade electric guitar pickups give musicians the possibility of upgrading their guitar, regardless of the instrument quality, for a clearer and more articulate signal that can be crafted and amplified at will.
The science of tone
Picture this: You’re six feet tall, standing inside a narrow hallway that is only seven feet tall, giving you only a 12” of space overhead, lets call this “headroom”. It feels cramped, right? This is what a mass-produced pickup is doing to your guitar tone. They are tight, choked, cramped, muddy, over-compressed, and already past the edge of breakup.
By comparison, using Lambertones pickups is like standing in a large foyer with 14 foot high ceilings. Having this much space around or “headroom” allows for a significantly improved dynamic range for your guitar tone. Giving your guitar more headroom before hitting the edge of breakup means you’ll capture more detail than you’ve ever heard from your beloved instrument before.

We love coffee
You might have noticed all of our pickups are named and inspired by all things coffee-related. This company was founded in the Pacific Northwest and we've taken pride in our brew ever since! There is nothing we love more than welcoming someone into our tone family and getting to know them over a cup of coffee.
our founder
Kurtis is a lifelong musician with a background in automotive technology, electrical engineering, and digital photography.
