Guitars
and electronics run deep in Kent Armstrong’s blood. His father, Dan
Armstrong was a pioneer in guitar design, electronics, effects and
amplifiers. Today,
Kent has a popular following for his very high quality electric guitar
pickups – his archtop pickups have become the industry standard and he
is well established as one of the world’s foremost instrument pickup
designers. While having an import line of
licensed Asian-built pickups based on his arduous studies and
experiments, he also hand winds custom pickups in his home-state of Vermont. It is these USA custom wound pickups that we are proud to offer. It is common to find Kent’s pickups on some of the most expensive and well-crafted guitars, but Kent
is a guy who will make nearly anything – and for that reason his
pickups are popular with folks wishing to upgrade whatever instruments
they play. The quality is second to none, and an incredible amount of expertise goes into each one he makes.
Take a look at our selection of Kent’s offerings and feel free to inquire about something you may not see here.
He makes a variety of pickups for Electric (single coils, humbuckers,
p-90's etc), as well as bass guitars (P and J style) and all sorts for
archtop (6 and 7 string). We are truly excited to be working with Mr. Armstrong and are confident you will love the sounds he delivers.
