Description
Seymour Duncan RTM DeMartini Humbucker Black Pickup
The RTM DeMartini is a high-output bridge humbucker engineered for aggressive playing styles and high-gain applications. This pickup delivers articulate, punchy midrange with controlled bass response, making it ideal for modern rock, metal, and hard-driving tonal palettes. Handcrafted in Santa Barbara, it brings professional-grade performance to demanding players.
Tone & Output Character
With a DC resistance of 17.6 K Ohms and inductance of 8.83 Henry, this pickup produces a focused, high-output signal with a resonant peak at 4.40 KHz that emphasizes clarity and definition in the upper-midrange—critical for cutting through dense mixes on stage. The Alnico 2 magnet provides warmth and harmonic complexity while maintaining tight articulation at high gain levels, keeping your tone locked and defined even when the gain is maxed out.
Installation & Live Reliability
Built for modern Floyd Rose equipped instruments, this pickup features 50mm standard spacing and comes with a 14" braised single conductor lead wire for straightforward wiring. The bridge-position design integrates seamlessly into tremolo-equipped guitars without modification, giving you one less variable to worry about during load-in and performance.
