The word Khrosis comes from the word explaining the process of a Chameleon chaining its colors. The Khrosis is a true tone changing machine. Great for the studio or the player who can’t make up their mind. Each khrosis pickguard can be swapped out in a matter of minutes thanks to our quick connect pickguard system that requires no soldering. The guards are held in place by thread inserts installed into the body and stainless steel machine screws.
The Khrosis was created to feature and house our own Porter Pickups and be a solid instrument that you can arm with countless tones for any situation.

Vintage Custom SSS Pickups w/ Tortoise Pickguard
The Porter Vintage Customs get their name because of the blend of vintage style coil wire with modern coil design. We added some new touches and features with this set to provide a more focused tone. The VC’s feature even height and bevelled AlNiCo 5 magnets resulting in a good string to string balance and a focused tone, with a little more output and aggression,but a smothered less aggressive response. The Vintage Custom set comes complete with vintage style grey bottom bobbins, and the bridge position features a steel baseplate to tame some of the highs normally found in that position. We feel the added bridge baseplate is a perfect complement to the even height magnets.
All Porter Guitars are custom built in Boise, ID.
