Seymour Duncan 8-String Nazgûl Bridge, Active Mount, Soapbar Matte Black Pickup

The Seymour Duncan Nazgûl bridge pickup delivers aggressive, articulate response across all eight strings with tight low-end definition and piercing high-end clarity. Its soapbar form factor fits modern extended-range instruments while the active mount design ensures secure installation and consistent output. Hand-built in Santa Barbara with meticulous attention to detail, this pickup cuts through the mix on stage and handles high-gain settings with separation and definition that studio recordings capture cleanly.

At 18.5K DCR, this pickup sits in the upper range for bridge applications, delivering the punch and sustain expected from a dedicated extended-range bridge humbucker.

Design & Construction

Built using vacuum wax potting for noise rejection and reliability, the pickup features a nickel silver bottom plate and black soapbar cover with exposed pole pieces for a refined aesthetic.
