Seymour Duncan Holcomb Scarlet Neck 8St White Pickup

Seymour Duncan Mark Holcomb Scarlet Neck 8-String Pickup — White

The Seymour Duncan Holcomb Scarlet Neck is a ceramic-magnet 8-string humbucking pickup engineered for extended-range metal and progressive applications. This neck-position voiced unit delivers articulate note definition across clean and mid-gain settings, making it responsive to pick dynamics and finger nuance. Designed in collaboration with Mark Holcomb, the pickup balances clarity with sufficient output to cut through dense arrangements.

Tonal Character & Output

The 7.56k ohms DCR and ceramic magnet combination yield a focused, defined response suited to rhythm work and lead articulation rather than extreme high-gain saturation. Output is calibrated to preserve note separation and sustain definition, particularly valuable in tuning contexts where muddy low-end or loss of treble clarity would compromise live performance.

Wiring & Coil Configuration

A 4-conductor wire configuration grants flexibility for coil-splitting mods, allowing you to access single-coil tones from a humbucking form factor. This electrical adaptability suits both stock installations and future customization without requiring a pickup swap.
