The soul of rock ‘n’ roll can be seen in the Harmony Rebel’s recalcitrant double-cut mahogany body and expressive gold foil pickups. This American-made chopper melds premium tonewoods and bold design principles with choice appointments and electronics to create an altogether revolutionary, though familiar, playing experience. A hand-filling “C” neck profile with just-right 25-inch scale and glassy 12-inch-radius rosewood fingerboard gives the Harmony Rebel the right stuff for caterwauling wails to soaring angelic leads. Driving it all is a pair of dynamic gold foil Alnico III humbuckers and simple 3-way toggle, which guide your hand from smooth, bluesy soul to biting crunch with the snap of a wrist. This guitar comes decked out in a classic nitrocellulose lacquer finish and is outfitted with Harmony’s iconic Custom Cupcake knobs. And for gigging around town, the Rebel includes an ultra-padded MONO Vertigo soft case with hands-free backpack straps.
American made from premium tonewoods
Mahogany and rosewood are a recipe for tonal perfection if there ever was one. And in this way, the Harmony Rebel doesn’t stray from the course. Its double-cut mahogany body joins an rosewood-capped mahogany neck by way of an extremely ergonomic low-profile heel. Together, these create a buttery-smooth response in the hands and an unforgettable playing experience into any low-wattage tube amp in your collection. And just like another legacy American guitar brand, the Harmony Rebel is handbuilt in Kalamazoo, Michigan with the right touches of heirloom quality and modern precision.
Gold foil humbucking pickups
Gold foil pickups began popping up on student guitars from the likes of Harmony and Teisco in the 1950s and ’60s, then saw a brief resurgence in boutique instruments in the mid-2010s. And just like that, as quickly as they came, they were gone again. But the tone maestros at Harmony never forgot the touch response and retro good vibes these pickups were all about. That’s why the Harmony Rebel comes stock with a custom-voiced set of gold foil humbucking pickups. These pickups exhibit a character — a bite, a chime, a spank, a spark — you’re not likely to find in other pickup types. Alnico III magnets and Orange drop caps give these humbuckers a nice vintage-y warmth and roundness. If you’re looking for classic tone and touch dynamics, you’ll find it in the Rebel.
