Description
Seymour Duncan Corey B Blackout Bridge 7-String Passive Mount Pickup
The Corey B Blackout Bridge delivers the focused, articulate attack and aggressive midrange punch that cuts through live mixes on extended-range rigs. This 7-string bridge pickup maintains clarity on complex chord work and single-note runs while sitting tight in dense band contexts, making it reliable for touring and session players who need definition without compromise. The passive design integrates seamlessly into existing wiring schemes without requiring additional power—no batteries to worry about on the road.
Tone & Performance
Built to handle the extended low end of a 7-string instrument with tight, aggressive response, this pickup emphasizes midrange presence and upper-mid definition that translates well through high-gain rigs in live settings. The passive architecture provides natural compression and sustain without active circuitry, allowing for organic note decay and consistent dynamic response night after night.
Design & Construction
The bridge-position mount design positions the coil for maximum string separation and pick-attack articulation on stage. Rated for standard passive-mount configurations, it integrates directly into most 7-string guitar cavities without modification or additional wiring requirements, making setup and potential replacement straightforward.
