Seymour Duncan Hades Gates Bridge White Pickup

Seymour Duncan Hades Gates Bridge White Pickup

The Seymour Duncan Hades Gates Bridge is a medium-output humbucker engineered to cut through dense mixes with articulate, controlled aggression in high-gain recording contexts. Its short mounting legs allow for direct installation in most modern bridge positions, and the white finish integrates seamlessly into contemporary instrument aesthetics. This is a no-compromise pickup for tracking sessions that demand clarity and definition without sacrificing power.

Tone & Output Character

Built with an overwound Alnico 2 magnet, this bridge pickup delivers a medium output level that sits well in the mix while preserving string definition and pick articulation across recording takes. The Alnico 2 composition provides warmth beneath the aggression, preventing harsh brittleness even at extreme gain settings during production and overdub work.

Construction & Studio Flexibility

Handbuilt in Santa Barbara, California, each unit reflects Seymour Duncan's attention to detail and quality control standards. The 4-conductor wiring grants flexible coil-splitting and parallel-series wiring options, making this pickup adaptable to various control schemes and tonal preferences for session work and studio arrangements.
