Seymour Duncan Corey B Blackout Bridge Pickup

Seymour Duncan Corey B Blackout Bridge Pickup

This active bridge pickup delivers aggressive, articulate output with tight low-end response and cutting high-mids—characteristics that define modern metal and hard rock tones. The Blackout series bridges designed for players who demand clarity and sustain without sacrificing dynamic range, even under high-gain amplification.

Tone & Output Character

The Blackout bridge produces a focused, compressed signal with pronounced midrange definition and controlled treble presence. This active design eliminates the need for onboard preamps while maintaining powerful output and tight articulation across palm-muted rhythms and lead passages. On stage, the pickup cuts through a dense mix without flabbiness, holding its character whether you're tracking at bedroom volumes or pushing power amps in a live room.

Construction & Compatibility

Built with ceramic magnet materials and precision coil winding, this pickup integrates into standard bridge positions on 6-string instruments. The active circuit requires battery power (typically a 9V source) and delivers consistent performance across varying output impedances. Road-tested reliability means the output stays stable through gigs and tours without tone drift or noise creep.
