Seymour Duncan Loomis Noumenon Matte Black Pickup Set

Seymour Duncan Loomis Noumenon Matte Black Pickup Set

The Seymour Duncan Loomis Noumenon pickups deliver aggressive output with surgical clarity, engineered specifically for extended-range guitars and high-gain applications. Designed in collaboration with Jeff Loomis, these pickups cut through dense mixes with articulate definition while maintaining the thickness and sustain demanded by modern progressive metal and djent styles. The matte black finish integrates seamlessly into contemporary instrument aesthetics.

Magnet Composition & Output Character

The 6-string configuration features Alnico 8 magnets, producing high output with thick, focused bass response and smooth treble extension ideal for standard tuning aggression. The 7-string variant uses Alnico 5 magnets to maintain tight low-end definition and sharp transient attack across extended range tunings, preventing the mud that can plague heavily-wound pickups in drop tunings.

Design & Compatibility

Both configurations employ passive design electronics for straightforward integration into existing wiring schemes without additional preamp circuitry. The triangular-feet bottom plates ensure direct mounting in standard humbucker routes, with proven compatibility on Jeff Loomis signature instruments and conventional guitar cavities.
