Description
Seymour Duncan 7-String Pegasus Bridge, Passive Mount, Black Metal Pickup
The Seymour Duncan 7-String Pegasus Bridge captures articulate definition across extended-range tunings, engineered for tracking modern metal and progressive production work. This hum-cancelling bridge pickup delivers clarity and punch with the extended frequency response necessary for 7-string capture, offering balanced output that maintains string separation and sits decisively in dense mixes without oversaturation.
Tone & Electronics
The 14.92 kΩ DC resistance and 4.44 kHz resonant peak emphasize string definition while controlling mud in the low-mid range during recording and mixing. The EQ curve of 6 / 7 / 5 (Treble / Mid / Bass) sculpts a bright, focused character that preserves articulation across all seven strings, essential for capturing complex riff work and fast picking passages with clarity in the final mix.
Design & Construction
Hand-built in the Santa Barbara, CA factory, this pickup employs Alnico 5 bar magnet construction with a nickel silver bottom plate for tonal consistency and sustain. Vacuum wax potting eliminates microphonic squeal during recording sessions, while the 4-conductor lead wire enables flexible wiring options to integrate with your studio electronics configuration.
