Seymour Duncan Pegasus - 8 String Bridge - Active Mount Black - Humbucker - High Output 8 String Electric Guitar Pickup

The Pegasus was originally built for 7 and 8 string guitars. Rather than modifying a 6-string pickup to work with extended range guitars, we started from scratch and built the Pegasus on a whole new platform. It incorporates an Alnico 5 bar magnet and custom winding specs. The goal was to deliver a warm, balanced, responsive, and lush tone for progressive metal. Its a harmonically rich pickup with a prominent midrange, and a focused low end. The high resonant peak makes for a sparkly top end and an incredible bloom on chords in high-gain situations. Its a great pickup for both live playing, and recording. The responsive and accurate pick attack ensures that you will cut through any live mix, and will have tight-tracking transients in a studio environment. Because the Pegasus is a moderate output pickup, it works as well for clean tones as it does for distorted tones. Hand built in our Santa Barbara, CA factory, the Pegasus uses an Alnico 5 bar magnet, nickel silver bottom plate, 4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and is vacuum wax potted for squeal-free performance. Handmade in Santa Barbara, California: Seymour Duncan takes pride in designing and crafting our products to create the most amazing sound possible. That starts with providing an environment that attracts and retains our great team of engineers, product designers and craftsmen, many of whom have been with the company for decades.
