FAQ

Do I have to pay every year?

No. The Vault Fee is only charged when you choose to exchange pickups.

Are the pickups I receive new?

Not always. In some cases we may send a brand-new set, but most replacements will be a Certified Refreshed BTone set — fully inspected, tested, and approved to perform like new.

We will never send pickups that are damaged or unreliable. While the lead wires may not always look factory-fresh, we ensure they’re a proper length and may add professional extensions if a previous owner trimmed them.

Every set you receive is clean, fully functional, and held to BTone’s boutique quality standards.

Do I pay shipping?

Yes. Customers cover shipping both ways.

Can I swap more than once?

Yes — original owners can exchange as many times as they like.

What if my pickups fail verification?

We return them to you. Fees and shipping are not refunded.

I bought BTone used — can I join?

No — the Tone Vault is reserved for original purchasers.
However, we do make exceptions in certain cases. If you’re unsure or have questions about your eligibility, just reach out — we’re here to help.

How long does a swap take?

Usually 3–7 business days after we receive and verify your pickups is when we will ship them back to you.
