Description
Mark Holcomb built his reputation on precise, punishing prog riffs, and the Scarlet Humbucker is the neck pickup he trusts to deliver it. Developed for his 7-string signature sound, this pickup pairs traditional warmth in the bass register with a glassy, articulate top end that keeps fast lead lines and complex chord voicings from turning to mud.
What sets the Scarlet apart from earlier Alpha-series designs is its ceramic magnet and calibrated output. That combination sharpens clean tones and tightens up the midrange, giving you the clarity needed for intricate rhythm work and the punch required for searing solos. It’s a pickup engineered specifically around the demands of modern, technical rock playing.
Key characteristics:
- Neck-position humbucker designed for 7-string guitars
- Ceramic magnet for calibrated, focused output
- Warm bass response balanced with a glassy, clear high end
- Voiced for punchy rhythm playing and cutting lead tones
- Mark Holcomb (Periphery) signature model
- White finish
Whether you’re chasing Holcomb’s own tone or just want a neck pickup that stays articulate under heavy gain, the Scarlet delivers the low-end body and top-end definition that technical rock and metal players demand.
