Seymour Duncan Holcomb Scourge TB Black Cover Pickup

Seymour Duncan Holcomb Scourge TB Black Cover Pickup

The Seymour Duncan Holcomb Scourge TB is a high-output bridge pickup engineered for aggressive, articulate response with exceptional clarity even at high gain. Built to specification for the Holcomb Scourge signature model, this Trembucker-format pickup delivers punchy midrange definition and extended high-end presence without sacrificing note separation in dense, saturated tones.

Tone & Electronics

Armed with an A8 Alnico magnet and measuring 77.0 dB output, this passive pickup generates commanding signal strength with a carefully voiced EQ curve: 4.8 bass, 4.5 mid, 8.5 treble. The treble-forward characteristic cuts through mix and sustain while the controlled midrange presence prevents harshness, making it ideal for modern metal and high-gain applications where articulation matters on stage and in the studio.

Design & Build

The 53mm Trembucker footprint fits standard humbucker cavities found on most modern guitars, while the 4-conductor wiring opens the door to coil-tap and split configurations for tonal flexibility. The black cover finish delivers a clean, professional appearance while maintaining the electromagnetic shielding properties that covered designs provide—reliable and road-tested.
