Description
Seymour Duncan Nazgul/Sentient Lime Green Pickup Set
This high-output humbucker pairing delivers articulate aggression paired with responsive dynamics, striking a balance between raw power and musical clarity. The Nazgul neck and Sentient bridge configuration is engineered for modern players who demand both crushing sustain and definition through heavy gain structures. The distinctive lime green finish adds visual character while the hand-built construction ensures consistent, reliable performance night after night.
Tone & Electronics
The Nazgul's ceramic magnet construction delivers aggressive output with tight low-end response, while the Sentient's Alnico 5 bar magnet provides articulate treble and midrange presence that cuts through dense live mix situations. Vacuum wax potting eliminates microphonic feedback, allowing you to push amplifiers hard without unwanted noise or squealing—essential when you're gigging in real venues and venues with variable stage conditions.
Design & Build
Both pickups feature nickel silver bottom plates for enhanced tonal clarity and sustain. The 4-conductor lead wires on each pickup enable flexible wiring configurations—coil-taps, series/parallel switching, and phase options—giving you expanded sonic versatility for different tunings, styles, and stage demands without requiring additional modification.
