Description
Seymour Duncan 7-String Pegasus/Sentient Matte Black Pickup Set
This 7-string humbucker set captures the articulation and headroom extended-range recording demands. The Pegasus bridge and Sentient neck pairing provides balanced output across a wide frequency range, translating aggressive tones without feedback or muddiness to tape. Hand-built in Santa Barbara, these pickups integrate seamlessly into existing cavities while delivering the tonal definition serious productions require.
Bridge & Neck Specifications
The Pegasus bridge pickup operates at 14.92 kΩ DC resistance with a 4.44 kHz resonant peak and 5/7/6 (Bass/Mid/Treble) EQ profile, cutting through dense mixes and leading sources with precision. The Sentient neck pickup sits at 9.2 kΩ DC resistance with a 5.57 kHz resonant peak and 4/3/8 (Bass/Mid/Treble) EQ, capturing warmth and clarity for rhythm layers and textural overdubs.
Construction & Wiring
Both pickups use Alnico 5 magnets paired with nickel-silver bottom plates and 4-conductor lead wires for flexible series/parallel/split switching options in the studio. Complete wax potting eliminates microphonic feedback during tracking, and the set includes passive mount humbucker covers for drop-in installation.
