The electric guitar has been a classic for decades. But with MagTone Guitars’ modular pickup system, a new era begins.
For music schools and guitar dealers, this means: less hassle, more flexibility—and a significantly enhanced customer experience. Whether students want to explore different sounds or customers want to compare pickups instantly—with a MagTone guitar it happens in seconds, no tools needed.
Music Schools Benefit from More Sound Variety and Less Effort
More Sounds, More Motivation
In music schools, guitar students often learn with classic models like the Fender Telecaster or Stratocaster—hearing only a single tonal character.
With a MagTone Custom-T or Classic-T, students can instead experience different pickup modules and sound characters—from single coil to humbucker, from vintage to modern.
This fosters musical understanding and brings variety into lessons. A simple magnetic swap replaces screwing and soldering—ideal for guitar lessons, workshops, and school bands.
Sustainable and Cost-Effective
One modular guitar can replace multiple instruments.
Music schools save on maintenance costs, since no complex electronics changes are required.
The modular system is durable, eco-friendly, and allows teachers to present different pickup modules without needing additional guitars.
Perfect for School Workshops & Repair Rooms
Because the entire electronics system is magnetically mounted, the risk of damaging electronics or wood is eliminated.
This is especially useful for schools that have their own workshops or tech rooms—and lowers daily operational effort significantly.
Guitar Dealers: A New Retail Experience with Unique Advantages
Live Pickup Comparison in the Shop
In traditional guitar stores, customers often need to test multiple guitars to hear differences between pickups. With MagTone Guitars, the sonic change can be demonstrated in seconds—no tools, no wiring mess.
Dealers can show customers how a humbucker sounds versus a single coil using just one electric guitar.
That enhances the customer experience, increases time spent in-store, and boosts impulse purchase conversion.
Unique Differentiation vs. Big Retailers
While large retailers focus on mass catalogs, local and medium-sized guitar dealers can gain a true differentiator with MagTone.
MagTone stands for innovation, craftsmanship, and sonic diversity in a way no other brand offers.
Because of the modular pickup system, your store becomes a place where customers can make real tone comparisons—something even major online shops can’t replicate.
You position yourself as a premium destination for modern guitar technology and build a loyal, returning customer base.
