Seymour Duncan TB-14 Custom 5 Trembkr White Pickup

The TB-14 Custom 5 delivers aggressive high-output punch with controlled clarity, engineered specifically for bridge-position applications in tremolo-routed guitars. This Trembucker-spaced pickup combines Seymour Duncan's meticulous craftsmanship with a focused frequency response that cuts through dense mix environments without sacrificing note definition.

Tone & Output Character

Built with an Alnico 5 bar magnet and dual coil design, the TB-14 produces high-power output while maintaining hum-cancelling performance for noise-free operation. The 14.8 kΩ DC resistance sits in the sweet spot for aggressive rock and metal tones—present enough for saturation without becoming muddy or losing articulation. On stage, this pickup delivers the aggression and presence needed to command a live mix while keeping every note tight and defined.

Construction & Reliability

Hand-assembled in Santa Barbara, California, this pickup features a nickel silver bottom plate and vacuum wax potting for superior durability and consistent performance across temperature and humidity changes—essential for gigging musicians who demand reliability night after night. The included 4-conductor lead wire and four-conductor hookup cable provide flexible wiring options for series, parallel, or split-coil configurations, giving you the tonal flexibility to dial in your sound.
