Seymour Duncan MortalCoil Neck 7-String ActMt Pickup

Seymour Duncan MortalCoil Neck 7-String Active Mount Pickup

The MortalCoil Neck delivers articulate, defined response in the neck position of extended-range instruments, with an active humbucker design engineered specifically for 7-string configurations. Built for modern metal and high-gain players who need note definition to cut through dense tunings and complex chord voicings on stage, this pickup combines aggressive character with the clarity that separates individual notes in a mix.

Tone & Electronics

High-density copper coils produce tight, controlled output with the noise rejection that active electronics bring—crucial for live work where hum and noise floor matter. The advanced preamp features optimized audio definition and battery-life-optimizing circuitry, allowing three distinct pickup voicings to dial in your exact tone without losing sustain or presence on the gig.

Design & Build

The Active Mount (ActMt) configuration integrates directly into compatible 7-string neck cavities with minimal modifications, meaning drop-in reliability for touring musicians. The active system design ensures consistent performance across extended range frequencies, with balanced response suited to lower tunings and complex chord voicings—no tonal compromise when you're running down and heavy.
