£9.99 · In-App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Stop the wiring guesswork. Access 80+ pickup brand colour codes, translate Alpha to CTS pot layouts, and compare brands with our exclusive Compare Mode. No subscriptions. The Ultimate Reference for Guitar Technicians and DIY Builders. Whether you’re upgrading a boutique humbucker or repairing a vintage classic, CoilSense eliminates the frustration of "mystery wires." Built by a professional guitar technician with over 15 years of experience, this is the most comprehensive pickup wiring resource on the App Store. BROWSE A MASSIVE DATABASE Stop searching forums for blurry diagrams. Access a curated, searchable library of 80+ manufacturers, from global giants to boutique builders. Detailed Specs: View wiring codes, coil polarity, and wind direction for every pickup. Multi-Format Support: Covers 4-core humbuckers, single-coil shielded wires, and multi-voice active systems. Live Updates: New manufacturers are added via Firestore—no app update required. PRO-GRADE WIRING LOGIC Most diagrams assume one type of component. CoilSense adapts to your actual hardware. Alpha vs. CTS: Instantly switch between the two most common pot types. They are wired differently—CoilSense shows you exactly how. Advanced Switching: Visualize complex layouts for Coil-Splitting (Inner/Outer coil), Phase Switching, and Series/Parallel configurations. Side-By-Side Compare Mode (Pro) The industry’s first "Visual Translator" for guitar pickups. Upgrading from one brand to another? Moving a build from a budget guitar to a premium one? Compare Mode allows you to put two different manufacturers or component types side-by-side to see exactly how the wiring changes. Real-Time Translation: Compare a Seymour Duncan to a Bare Knuckle instantly. No more cross-referencing static charts or manual note-taking. The "Link" Feature: Keep your settings in sync. Change the wiring to "Series/Parallel" on one side, and the other side updates automatically to show you the equivalent layout for the second manufacturer. The "Override" Logic: Turn off the Link to compare hardware variations. Want to see how an Alpha Pot layout differs from a CTS Pot layout for the exact same pickup? Simply override the link and toggle the hardware on one side. iPad Optimized: On the iPad, Compare Mode utilizes the full screen width to give you a massive, clear view of both schematics—perfect for having your device on the workbench while you solder. DESIGNED FOR THE WORKBENCH iPad Optimized: A unified notes field and side-by-side Compare Mode take full advantage of the larger screen. No Subscription Fatigue: Get lifetime access to the full suite of features with a one-time Pro purchase. CoilSense: Accuracy you can trust, right at your soldering station.
