Story

The standard pickup in the Eastwood Hooky Bass 6 PRO, Bass 4 PRO, and the Baritone PRO is great as it is, but we wanted to go a step further and create a no-compromise replica of Hooky’s original pickups in order to bring you THE Peter Hook sound.

Hooky, once again, granted us exclusive access to his original Shergold Marathon 6 Bass for this project.

Working with our friends at Mojo Pickups in the UK, we reverse engineered the pickup, cloned it, and created what we consider to be the most accurate version of Hooky’s personal original pickups (and of the 70’s Shergold Marathon Bass pickup in general).

How close did we get?
Well, Hooky’s own words were, “wow, it’s the same”!

You can’t get a better stamp of approval than that. If you’re looking for 100% accurate Joy Division/New Order tones out of your existing Eastwood Hooky, you can now retrofit it with this Hooky Bass VI Mojo Pickup (no routing needed).
