Richard Hallebeek Set

Since 2020, Richard Hallebeek is enjoing the benefits of Kloppmann Pickups. Hallebeek is known for his fat singing Jazz-Rock tone in the best Allan-Holdworth-Tradition. Working together with Erik van de Haar of HAAR-Guitars, Hallebeeks signature guitar needed pickups. So we took care of this issue and started to produce a few prototypes. This terrific guitar can be made to order at HAAR-Guitars. 

The ST Pickups in the set are ST Real 62. They already appoved their abiltity of acting as capable sidemen for Humbuckers in many cases. For the bridge part, a special humbucker had to be created. Richard asked for a clear but mellow pickup to produce his singing chello-like signature tone. After a few prototypes we were happy to find a decent recipe for the HB RH to serve the needs of this outstanding artist.

The HB-RH is available as open Humbucker in a splittable 4-conductor version or with the classic braided shield wire. A covered version is doable on upcharge, but will sound a bit different.
