Harkers Island set

Harkers Island Pickup Set
Balanced Brilliance Born from the Banks

Forged in the spirit of salt-sprayed heritage, the Harkers Island pickup set channels the soul of North Carolina’s Down East coast—where boatbuilders, watermen, and generations of islanders have carved their legacy from pine, salt, and grit.

The bridge pickup roars with the power of storms that sweep across Core Sound, delivering a punchy, focused midrange with just enough grit to cut through the densest mix. Designed for clarity under gain and articulation in the low end, it brings the weight of a well-seasoned anchor and the bite of a nor’easter.

The neck pickup balances the fury with smooth, glassy overtones—like sunlight reflecting off calm waters. Lush, expressive, and rounded, it gives warmth without mud, clarity without harshness, and just enough vintage swirl to recall the stories passed down on front porches and in boathouses.

Both pickups are built to echo the character of Harkers Island itself—isolated but never idle, weathered but never broken. A place where time slows, but tone endures. Whether you’re playing through a clean channel or pushing into saturation, this set offers a versatile voice that feels as home in blues and rock as it does in the hands of players searching for a soulful Southern expression.

Wound to match the heart of tradition and the edge of progress, the Harkers Island set isn’t just a tribute. It’s a tide that pulls you in.
