Description
Seymour Duncan High Voltage TB Black Pickup
The Seymour Duncan High Voltage TB is a bridge-position trembucker engineered to cut through dense mixes with aggressive, articulate output while maintaining note clarity across your recordings. This Alnico II-magnet design delivers the high-output character the High Voltage line is known for, while the trembucker footprint accommodates wide bridge spacing on modern guitar designs. The result is a pickup that sits forward in the mix with defined attack and sustained presence.
Tone & Output Characteristics
At 9.37k DCR, this pickup operates in the high-output zone, producing aggressive midrange bite and powerful harmonic content that translates well to hard rock, metal, and heavier tracking sessions. The Alnico II magnet provides warmth and musicality beneath the output level, preventing harshness and maintaining frequency separation so every layer sits distinctly in your mix.
Design & Specifications
Built in the United States, this trembucker features a 4-conductor winding configuration that enables flexible wiring options including series, parallel, and split-coil configurations for studio experimentation. The matched design integrates seamlessly into bridge positions on 6-string guitars equipped with tremolo systems.
