Description
Seymour Duncan Corey B Blackout Set 7-string Active Mount Pickup
The Corey B Blackout 7-string set delivers articulate, controlled aggression designed specifically for extended-range tunings and high-gain applications. These active humbuckers respond dynamically across the full seven-string range, maintaining clarity and definition even at extreme volumes and gain settings. Built for players demanding precision in modern metal and djent contexts, this set combines handcrafted quality with professional-grade electronics.
Pickup Configuration & Magnet Design
The set pairs an Alnico 5 magnet in the neck position with a ceramic magnet in the bridge, providing balanced output and tonal separation across positions. This magnet pairing delivers responsive lows and controlled highs—essential for articulating complex chord voicings and fast lead work on a seven-string instrument.
Active Electronics & Installation
An integrated active preamp with high gain and dynamic response shapes your signal at the source, reducing noise while maintaining playing dynamics. The complete system includes all necessary components for installation: potentiometers, hardware, quick-connector cables, capacitor, output jack, battery clip, and installation wire—everything needed for a professional setup.
