The Black Winter pickup is a savagely high-output passive
humbucker built for extreme metal, with no less than three large
ceramic magnets to ensure maximum output and sustain in all
high-gain situations. The custom overwound coil design delivers
incredible clarity in the mids and highs, while the low end stays
controlled and focused. The Black Winter is designed to handle
any tuning, no matter how low you go, and its voicing facilitates
aggressive palm mutes, fluid sweep picking, and punishing lead
tones.
Crushing distortion, vicious mids, and aggressive saturation are
at your fingertips, without sacrificing string-to-string
separation or sensitivity. The 7- and 8-string versions are built
to handle even more extended-range low notes with ease. Pair the
bridge Black Winter with the Black Winter neck model for maximum
metal onslaught.
Hand made in Santa Barbara, CA, we offer the Black Winter for
6-string in standard humbucker and Trembucker sizes, as well as
7- and 8-string string passive mount (with naked coils… brrr!).
The Black Winter high-output passive humbucker ships with
4-conductor lead wire for multiple wiring options, and is vacuum
wax potted for squeal-free operation.
