Seymour Duncan Black Winter RAILS Humbucker Bridge Pickup - Black
Following on the heels of their successful Black Winter pickup, the new Black Winter Rails is the Black Winter on "11". Using three efficient ceramic magnets -- no wooden spacers, just magnets -- the Black Winter Rails creates a large broad magnetic field. And the specially overwound coil of the Black Winter Rails combines high output, tight lows and extremely quick attack that is perfect for low tunings, fast riffs and chugging. If you are serious about Metal, the Black Winter Rails will put you on the right track.
Ceramic magnet
4 conductor wiring
~20K DC resistance
In the words of Seymour Duncan...
The Black Winter pickup is a savagely high-output passive humbucker built for extreme metal, with no less than three large ceramic magnets to ensure maximum output and sustain in all high-gain situations. The custom overwound coil design delivers incredible clarity in the mids and highs, while the low-end stays controlled and focused.
The Black Winter is designed to handle any tuning, no matter how low you go, and its voicing facilitates aggressive palm mutes, fluid sweep picking, and punishing lead tones. Crushing distortion, vicious mids, and aggressive saturation are at your fingertips, without sacrificing string-to-string separation or sensitivity. The 7- and 8-string versions are built to handle even more extended-range low notes with ease. Pair the bridge Black Winter with the Black Winter neck model for maximum metal onslaught.
