Seymour Duncan alt.metal Blackouts Humbucker Black Pickup Set

Seymour Duncan alt.metal Blackouts Humbucker Black Pickup Set

The Seymour Duncan alt.metal Blackouts are built for players who need aggressive, tight articulation and high output on stage night after night. This active humbucker set combines ceramic bridge magnets with Alnico 5 neck magnets to produce punchy lows, defined mids, and crisp treble response that cuts through dense mix environments without losing clarity—essential for gigging musicians who demand their tone to sit in the pocket under live conditions.

Active Electronics & Reliability

These active humbuckers operate on battery power, supplied via the included quick-connector cables and battery clip for reliable, consistent gain and signal integrity throughout a full set. The active design ensures a low noise floor and high output levels that hold up under the demands of high-gain applications and variable stage environments.

Installation & Build Quality

Hand-built in Santa Barbara, CA, each pickup set ships with everything needed for a professional retrofit—pots, hardware, quick-connector cables, capacitor, output jack, battery clip, and wire. The passive dogear mounting fits most guitar designs, making these straightforward to install and get back on the road without downtime.
