Seymour Duncan 11106-43-B-8s AHB-1s 8-String Blackouts Neck and Bridge Set Black
Replace your stock 7 or 8-string actives with this set of Blackouts for crushingly tight highs and lows. The neck-balanced preamp and coil geometry reveal both warmth and single-note clarity from your extended range instrument right down to the B string. Chords sound warm and full and leads run rich with organic sustain. The extended frequency response makes this a great humbucker for metal players who want huge output but also need the unique tonal character of their guitar to shine through.
This bridge delivers a searing onslaught of distortion. Power-chorded riffs remain tight and responsive whether in standard B or even with modern drop-A tunings. Highs are crisp and call out for swift arpeggios and tapped passages. The perfect choice for metal players who want all the thick low-end crunch of an extended range instrument without any of the loose bottom feel common among stock pickups.
Also available in a 7-string passive size to retrofit a standard 7-string passive humbucker routes (8-string only available for active mount). Comes with pots hardware quick-connector cables capacitor (active pickups require a special cap value) output jack battery clip and wire needed for installation. If your guitar already has active pickups with quick-connector cables installed, you should be able to simply unplug them and plug in your Blackouts.
