The Seymour Duncan 11102-90-B Black Winter Humbucker is a neck humbucker designed specifically for crushing black and death metal. The pickup offers a dark and vicious tone with plenty of grime and aggression. The ceramic magnet provides crushing distortion, punishing mids, aggressive saturation, and string sensitivity. This high-output pickup delivers a fluid solo tone with a crisp, clear sound and balanced mids, treble, and bass. The pickup utilizes a large ceramic magnet, a 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and is vacuum wax potted for squeal-free operation. The Black Winter is handmade in Santa Barbara, CA.
