Description
Seymour Duncan High Voltage TB Reverse Zebra Pickup
The High Voltage TB delivers the aggressive output and articulate midrange character that cuts through a dense stage mix without sacrificing clarity or definition. This Reverse Zebra-finished humbucker pairs high-gain voicing with solid construction, making it a workhorse choice for players pushing heavy tones live and in the studio while keeping each note distinct and defined.
Tone & Output Character
Built around an Alnico 2 magnet, this pickup generates substantial output that responds well to overdrive and high-gain amplification while maintaining note separation and string articulation. The bridge configuration produces 9.73k output, providing the aggression needed for modern rock and metal without sacrificing harmonic complexity—essential for cutting through loud venues and complex arrangements.
Construction & Wiring
Hand-built in California with a 4-conductor shielded cable, this pickup accommodates coil-split wiring, series/parallel switching, and standard humbucker installation in most guitar platforms. The shielded construction minimizes noise and RF interference, essential for high-output applications in live and studio environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
What output does this pickup have, and will it work with my amp setup?
The bridge position delivers 9.73k output with aggressive voicing designed for high-gain amplification and overdrive. The neck option runs 7.68k for balanced configurations; both are built around an Alnico 2 magnet for responsive, controlled dynamics across modern rock and metal applications.
Can I use coil-split or series/parallel switching with this pickup?
Yes, the 4-conductor shielded cable supports coil-split wiring and series/parallel switching, giving you tonal flexibility beyond standard humbucker operation. The shielded construction also minimizes noise and RF interference in high-output live and studio environments.
Does this fit my guitar, and how is it constructed?
The High Voltage TB is a humbucker format that fits standard Gibson-style cavities and most guitar platforms. It's hand-built in California with Alnico 2 magnet construction and comes with a 4-conductor shielded cable for easy installation.
What genres and playing styles is this pickup best suited for?
It excels in metal, hard rock, progressive, and modern rock where high-gain response and articulate note separation are priorities. It is not recommended for jazz, blues, or country, where its aggressive voicing and output would not align with those tonal traditions.
How does this compare to other high-output pickups like the EMG 81 or Seymour Duncan JB?
The High Voltage TB sits in the same competitive space as the EMG 81/85 and Seymour Duncan JB, offering aggressive output and high-gain responsiveness with hand-built California construction. Its 9.73k bridge output and articulate midrange provide clarity in dense mixes while maintaining the controlled dynamics and versatile wiring options Seymour Duncan is known for.
