Seymour Duncan Green Magic Humbucker Black Pickup Set

The Green Magic humbuckers deliver a balanced, articulate voice that cuts through a live mix without sacrificing warmth or sustain. This 2-piece neck and bridge set uses Alnico 2 magnets and reverse-phase winding on the neck pickup to create harmonic complexity and reduced hum, making them a solid choice for gigging musicians seeking clarity and definition across genres.

Tone & Output Characteristics

The neck pickup generates 7.7k output while the bridge reaches 8.7k, providing moderate-to-hot response suitable for clean articulation and driven tones on stage. The neck pickup's 180° magnet flip positions it out of phase with the bridge unit, resulting in thinner, more transparent tones when both pickups are engaged together—ideal for creative rhythm textures that stay defined in a full band setting.

Construction & Wiring

Both pickups employ 4-conductor shielded cable, allowing flexible coil-splitting and phase-switching options for players building custom electronics. The Alnico 2 magnet choice emphasizes midrange warmth and natural breakup, a hallmark of classic humbucker design refined for modern applications and road-tested reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the Green Magic different from a standard humbucker set?

The neck pickup is wound with its magnet flipped 180° out of phase with the bridge, which reduces hum and creates thinner, more transparent tones when both pickups are engaged together—perfect for creative rhythm textures. Both pickups use 4-conductor wiring for coil-splitting and phase-switching options.

Is this set suitable for metal or high-output genres?

The Green Magic is designed for blues, rock, hard rock, and progressive music; it is not optimized for metal or thrash metal. The moderate-to-hot output and articulate, balanced tone prioritize clarity over extreme aggression.

What are the output levels, and will they work in drop tunings?

The neck pickup is 7.7k and the bridge is 8.7k, providing moderate-to-hot response suitable for clean articulation and driven tones. The set works in both standard and drop tunings.

What's included in this set, and what wiring options does it support?

You get a 2-piece set with neck and bridge pickups, both with black covers and 4-conductor shielded cable. The 4-conductor wiring enables coil-splitting and phase-switching for custom electronics builds.

Why choose Alnico 2 magnets?

Alnico 2 magnets emphasize midrange warmth and natural breakup, a classic humbucker characteristic refined for modern playing. This choice supports the Green Magic's balanced, articulate tone and reduced-hum design.
