Description
Seymour Duncan TB-12 Screamin' Demon Trembucker White Pickup
The TB-12 Screamin' Demon Trembucker delivers aggressive, articulate high-end punch with controlled sustain—a bridge pickup engineered for players who demand clarity without sacrificing drive. Hand-built in Santa Barbara with medium output and an Alnico 5 bar magnet, this pickup cuts through a mix while maintaining note definition across all six strings.
Tone & Output Character
With a DC resistance of 10.9k Ohm and slightly overwound coils, the Screamin' Demon produces a focused, percussive attack ideal for rock and metal applications. Vacuum wax potting eliminates microphonic squeal, ensuring feedback-free operation even at high gain levels—critical for stage work where amp volume demands absolute stability.
Design & Construction
Built specifically for wide string spacing, this Trembucker features mixed pole pieces—one row of standard adjustable screws paired with Allen head screws on the opposite row—allowing precise voicing adjustments to dial in your tone on stage. The nickel silver bottom plate contributes to tonal clarity while supporting the magnet structure and ensuring reliable performance night after night.
