TOM ANDERSON GUITAR PICKUP
100% Hand Made in USA

We’ve been Making pickups Since 1984:
"The first year of the company, I ran the company from my garage. 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. 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."

H SERIES
The time honored Anderson humbucker series. A complete line of broadband (full frequency response) humbuckers, characterized by ample amounts of lows and highs while still having plenty of midrange power, never squashed or narrow but always big, full and robust. Due to their construction, these pickups also split amazingly well.
Now available for 7-Strings!

H 1-: The perfect neck pickup to balance with the H2+ or H2 at the bridge, full, throaty neck humbucker tones that are never bloated, open, clear and rich, splits really well. Specs: DC Resistance: 5.5 kO, EQ(0-10) Bass: 4.5 Mid: 5.0 Treble: 3.8, Magnet: Ceramic

H 1: Same as the H1- above but with a little more output and fullness for additional oomph. Perfect balance for an H3 bridge pickup or those that want more neck fullness. Specs: DC Resistance: 6.0 kO, EQ(0-10) Bass: 4.7 Mid: 5.0 Treble: 4.0, Magnet: Ceramic

H 1+: Same layout as the H1- and H1 but with even a little more mids and lows for bigger neck tones. Occasionally this pickup can even find its way into the bridge position. Specs: DC Resistance: 7.5 kO, EQ(0-10) Bass: 4.5 Mid: 5.8 Treble: 4.5, Magnet: Ceramic

H 2: Medium hot and nicely balanced for mid power supported by clarity and thump. Specs: DC Resistance: 9.5 kO, EQ(0-10) Bass: 6.0 Mid: 5.0 Treble: 7.0, Magnet: Ceramic

H 2+: Perhaps our most popular bridge humbucker. Not too hot, not too cold but just right with a big low end. Full mids without giving up all the highs and lows. Specs: DC Resistance: 11 kO, EQ(0-10) Bass: 3.5 Mid: 7.0 Treble: 6.0, Magnet: Ceramic

H 3: Thicker, fuller and hotter than the H2+, this is where musical legato begins. Makes the picking hand feel completely fluid while still presenting more than just midrange-only tone. Specs: DC Resistance: 14.0 kO, EQ(0-10) Bass: 3.0 Mid: 8.0 Treble: 7.0, Magnet: Ceramic

H 3+: A step up from the H3 with a touch more gain and low end power. Specs: DC Resistance: 16.5 kO, EQ(0-10) Bass: 2.5 Mid: 9.0 Treble: 8.0, Magnet: Ceramic
