  • Seymour Duncan Black Winter Set Humbucker Guitar Pickup Black

    The Black Winter is as dark and vicious as the winters in Scandinavia with excessive grime and aggression; the right balance of midst, treble and bass to instantly take you from annihilating riffs to solos with cutting articulation. The Black Winter fills the needs of extreme metal guitarists with a tone that provides crushing distortion, punishing midst and lots of aggressive saturation and string sensitivity. Neck and bridge pickups are calibrated for a balanced assault. Hand built in Santa Barbara, CA, we offer the Black Winter in standard 6-string size, as well as 7 & 8 string passive mount with naked coils (or in Active 'Soap bar' Mount with exposed pole pieces). Comes with 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and is vacuum wax potted for squeal free operation.

  • Seymour Duncan Nazghul 8-String Passive Guitar Pickup Black Metal Bridge

    Created for total sonic obliteration on 8-string guitars, this Nazgl pickup starts where most passive high output pickups stop. The large ceramic magnet inside serves up aggressive tones for brutal, down tuned chugging riffs. The mid range is just a little more prominent to bring out the definition of the B and F# strings. Don't fear though, for all the gain and ruthless attack you're going to give the guitar and amp, the notes will still remain fluid and articulate. Bridge only. Designed to be matched with the Sentient neck. This 8-string passive version comes with a black metal cover.

  • EMG JH James Hetfield Signature Guitar Pickup Set, Black Chrome

    Now available in EMG Metal Works Finishes and EMG’s Solderless Installation System components, the JH Set consists of the JH-N (neck) and the JH-B (bridge). Both were patterned after the pickups James had used for 30 years, but the end result was a completely different animal. The JH-N has individual ceramic poles and bobbins that feature a larger core and are taller than the 60. This produces more attack, higher output, and fuller low end in the neck position. The JH-B uses the same type of core but has steel pole pieces, unlike the 81 that uses bar magnets. This produces the familiar tight attack with less inductance for a cleaner low end. Metal Works consists of six stainless steel cap options for any of EMG's active or passive humbucker pickups. These U.S.A made caps are available in... [Read More]
