Description
Seymour Duncan Corey B Blackout Set Pickup
The Corey B Blackout Set captures aggressive, high-output tone with a tight low end and punchy midrange that sits clearly in dense mixes without losing note articulation. Designed in collaboration with Whitechapel guitarist Corey Beaulieu, this set excels in modern metal and djent recording sessions where precision and clarity matter as much as raw power. The paired neck and bridge pickups work cohesively to maintain definition across the entire fretboard, even under heavy gain—critical for tracking rhythm and lead parts that demand separation.
Output & Tone Character for Tracking
Both pickups feature Blackout ceramic magnets and overwound coils that generate high output without the noise floor typical of lesser designs. The bridge model emphasizes upper midrange punch and treble clarity for cutting leads and palm-muted passages, while the neck pickup provides warm sustain and tight bass response ideal for layering rhythm takes and lead articulation in the mix.
Construction & Studio Installation
This is a complete set containing both neck and bridge pickups with standard mounting hardware and wiring specs for most modern electric guitars. The pickups feature passive design with standard four-conductor wiring, making installation straightforward in any guitar with conventional electronics routing—no exotic modifications needed for your recording rig.
