Seymour Duncan 7-String Invader Neck, Passive Mount, Black Metal Pickup

The Seymour Duncan 7-String Invader Neck delivers aggressive, articulate midrange response with controlled low-end punch ideal for extended-range drop tunings and heavy music. This passive humbucker excels at defining individual strings in dense, fast-picked passages while maintaining the clarity needed for complex chord voicings on seven-string instruments. Hand-built in Santa Barbara with premium components, it's engineered for players demanding precision and presence in the neck position.

Tone & EQ Profile

The 7/8/4 EQ character (bass/mid/treble) emphasizes the 8 kHz resonant peak, pushing vocal midrange articulation that cuts through band mixes without sacrificing definition. The 7.2 kΩ DC resistance provides moderate output suitable for both clean articulation and saturation-friendly signal delivery to high-gain amplifiers on stage.

Design & Build Quality

Three large ceramic bar magnets paired with oversized metal oxide pole pieces generate extended frequency response across the seven-string spectrum. Nickel silver bottom plate, four-conductor lead wire, and vacuum wax potting ensure durability and hum rejection across touring schedules and varied venue electrical environments.
