Player's Perspective
Music Store Live is proud to present this Khrosis Custom by Porter Guitars!
They've been well known for quite some time now for the absolutely incredible pickups that they make. As soon as we picked up one of their guitars, it became very clear that these guys know how to do it all! The level of refinement in this guitar is fantastic. The fretwork is on point and lets you dial in nice low action. The neck gives you a solid chunk of wood to hold onto but doesn't feel like a toothpick in your hands. It's going to remind you of a good classic 60's C-shaped neck. The bolt-on design keeps the sound nice and snappy and there are no compromises in tuning stability or sustain either. The neck is an absolute joy for your fretting hand and the roasted maple feels incredible.
The Porter Pickups in this are, of course, absolutely fantastic. We've got a Smooth humbucker in the neck and a WRH in the bridge. The Smooth is one of Porter's most popular pickups. We wanted to give these Khrosis builds an edgier sound. So the wide range WRH is going to be a bit fuller, more aggressive, and punchier sounding. They'll be great for heavier applications. The neck humbucker will still give you a warm, rich, and full sound for when you aren't trying to slice your way through the mix.
This is a great guitar for hobbyists and pros alike. It's an extremely high quality guitar with an incredible ease of playing and refined sound that'll make you never want to put it down.
Manufacturer's Description
The Custom model Khrosis is for those who are looking to add an even more unique touch to their Porter Guitar.
SMOOTH HUMBUCKER:
Porter Smooth Humbucker Pickups have great mid range but also distort smoothly. They also have good clean and sustain for a well balanced pickup. The Smooth Humbucker shines with light overdrive and riffs, and has a non-harsh tone for strumming and complex clean chord applications. They have a little more low end tone than other pickups we sell, but don’t get too muddy.
WRH HUMBUCKER:
The WRH humbuckers are a standard humbucker sized version of our full sized WR pickups. We feature the same coil design, winds and magnets just in the smaller humbucker package. These pickups have great clarity and BIG clean tone. With the overwound bobbins, they do very well taming bright guitar and respond nicely to volume changes. Notes on these pickups just out very quickly, and the y cover a great range from high to low end without getting too much one way.
