Seymour Duncan Blackened Black Winter, Humbucker Neck Matte Black Pick

Seymour Duncan Blackened Black Winter HB Neck Matte Black Pickup

The Blackened Black Winter neck humbucker delivers aggressive, articulate high-output performance with a distinctive all-black aesthetic that matches modern instrument finishes. This overwound ceramic design cuts through dense mix environments while maintaining clarity in the neck position, making it ideal for players who demand both visual cohesion and aggressive tonal character.

Tone & Output Character

With a DC resistance of 13.00k and inductance of 4.786 H, this pickup generates substantial output without sacrificing definition. The resonant peak at 6.35kHz emphasizes articulate midrange detail, while the balanced EQ curve of 6 (bass), 6 (mids), 6 (treble) maintains neutral frequency response across the spectrum—essential for a neck position that must remain clear and focused in live settings and studio recordings alike.

Construction & Components

Built with ceramic magnet materials and overwound coils, the Blackened Black Winter achieves its high-output signature without sacrificing sustain through extended sets. Two rows of adjustable hex pole pieces allow precise output balancing across strings for even response night after night, while the four-conductor cable enables flexible wiring options for series, parallel, or split configurations to match your rig.
