Seymour Duncan High Voltage Neck Gold Cover Pickup

This pickup excels in rock, metal, hard rock, and progressive styles where articulate lead clarity and punchy midrange are priorities. It is not optimized for jazz or blues, where warmer, darker tonal character is typically preferred.

The High Voltage Neck sits between the warmer 59 and the more aggressive JB, delivering punchy midrange with Alnico II clarity while avoiding the brittleness of overwound designs. Its 7.7k ohm output is higher than the 59 but more balanced than full-distortion bridge models.

The 4-conductor cable allows you to configure the pickup in series or parallel mode, giving you tonal flexibility for different playing dynamics and recording scenarios. Standard humbucker wiring is also fully supported.

The High Voltage Neck is approachable for intermediate players and scales with advanced technique; its articulate response rewards cleaner picking and precise muting while delivering the output and clarity that professional players expect.

You receive the neck-position humbucker with a lightly aged chrome/gold cover, 4-conductor shielded cable, 7.7k ohms DC resistance, Alnico II magnet, and 42 AWG plain enamel wiring. Inductance is 3.928 H for tight, articulate response.
